SUMMARY:The Black Woman of Gippsland
DESCRIPTION:From Andrea James (Sunshine Super Girl) comes The Black Woman of Gippsland – a story of Victoria’s dark past that is in dire need of revisiting\, told as a thrilling modern mystery that unfolds with beauty\, tragedy and rebellion. \nA woman is tossed ashore from the sea\, bedraggled and lost. A century and a half later\, another finds herself diving deep into the truth behind a lingering legend. \nJacinta’s family is driving her up the wall and her academic career is floundering\, but amongst the books\, something doesn’t feel right about the story history tells. The myths and half-truths that surround the figure of a ‘white woman’ said to have lived among the Gunaikurnai people of Gippsland in the 1840s are so abundant it seems the reality is out of reach. But Jacinta is determined to unearth the truth for herself and her Gunaikurnai family no matter the twists and turns the journey might take her on. \nBased on real events and set on Andrea’s grandmother’s country\, The Black Woman of Gippsland is a poetic\, emotionally rich and clever embracing of First Nations stories that have long been silenced.

SUMMARY:The Boys
DESCRIPTION:A family bound by an unthinkable crime. A past that keeps repeating\, a lesson still unlearned. \nGordan Graham’s play\, The Boys\, is a powerful and unsettling exploration of family and gendered violence\, examining its ripple effects on the women left in its wake. Originally inspired by the events surrounding the Anita Cobby murder\, this fictionalised account offers an intimate look at the lives of three brothers and the forces that shaped them. \nGreen Room nominated Director\, Tess Walsh\, brings this urgent story to the stage with a modernised setting—underscoring that these cycles of violence are not relics of the past but continue to be deeply ingrained in our society. The production challenges the audience to confront the complexities of these issues and reflect on the role we all play in dismantling harmful attitudes. By placing this harrowing story in the safety of a theatre setting\, The Boys invites audiences to witness\, reflect\, and engage in vital conversations about change.

This show may contain drinking\, swearing\, nudity\, simulated acts of a sexual nature\, terrible singing\, actual acts of a sexual nature\, and quite possibly – some actual Shakespeare.

SUMMARY:The Dictionary of Lost Words
DESCRIPTION:BEST-SELLING | NOVEL | ADAPTATION\nIn 1901\, the word bondmaid was discovered to be missing from the Oxford English Dictionary.\nThe Dictionary of Lost Words is the story of the girl who stole it.\nSouth Australian novelist Pip Williams’ internationally best-selling book\, comes to vivid life in this critically acclaimed stage adaptation by South Australian playwright\, Verity Laughton. \nA best-selling multi-award winner (including the People’s Choice Award at the NSW Premier’s Literary Awards) and chosen for the Reese Witherspoon Book Club\, the book has been lauded as an “absorbing\, quietly revolutionary novel”\, “deeply\, intrinsically kind (and) a profoundly comforting place to dwell” (The Age) and “a captivating and slyly subversive fictional paean to the real women whose work on the Oxford English Dictionary went largely unheralded.” (New York Times). \nMotherless and ever curious\, Esme spends her childhood in the Scriptorium – the “Scrippy”\, a converted garden shed in Oxford where her father and a team of lexicographers guided by Dr James Murray are gathering words for the very first Oxford English Dictionary. She hides beneath the sorting table and catches a word on a “slip” as it falls and soon\, she finds other words that have been neglected by the men. Here begins Esme’s collection of her own: the Dictionary of Lost Words. \nAs the years pass\, Esme realises that little importance is placed on recording the words and meanings relating to women’s experiences and as her world expands and her circle of friends grows – actresses\, suffragettes\, market traders\, workers\, she realises the power in their silenced voices and decides to lend them hers. And on the way\, she comes to understand the many meanings of the word “love”. \n“The Dictionary of Lost Words is a must-see… the entire season sold out before opening\, with every effort being made to find some extra seats. If you can get one\, do it. It’s unmissable.” \nThe Advertiser

SUMMARY:SLAY
DESCRIPTION:t starts with an eerie disappearance… \nWhat follows is a political horror comedy where the four lesbians that are blamed for the sudden disappearance one by one meet gruesome fates. Can one of them survive to set the record straight? \nSLAY is a devised theatrical work that explores representation of queer women from a group of emerging artists interested in using queer theatre to upend the status quo. This is a work that hits the audience like a tonne of bricks\, moving at the pace we are now accustomed to consuming media. Through the lens of horror\, the work examines the frightening rise in polarisation and it asks audiences what distinguishes truth from fiction in our ever growing online world? \nSLAY will shock\, surprise and scare\, taking inspiration from campy horror that has come before it.

SUMMARY:RBG: Of Many\, One
DESCRIPTION:“One of the all-time great performances” The Sydney Morning Herald \nAfter a triumphant premiere season in 2022\, and a sold-out national tour in 2024\, the smash-hit RBG: Of Many\, One returns to the Melbourne stage once more in 2025\, due to popular demand. \nThe brilliant Heather Mitchell will be reviving her award-winning and critically acclaimed “virtuosic performance” (The Conversation) of the woman who changed the face of the American legal system: the indomitable Ruth Bader Ginsburg. \nThe second woman to be appointed to the US Supreme Court\, Ruth Bader Ginsburg was both a trailblazer in the American judiciary and a fierce advocate for gender equality and reproductive rights. Her life is brought to the stage in an STC commissioned play by the extraordinary pen of Olivier Award-winning Australian playwright and expert legal mind\, Suzie Miller (Prima Facie). This story chronicles Ginsburg’s wins and dissents\, traces her steps forward and the steps back\, and brings you right into the room with Ruth at the most pivotal moments of her life. \nA masterstroke of directorial vision\, Priscilla Jackman reconjures RBG in this once-in-a-generation theatrical event that continues to find resonances with the political landscape of the present day. If you haven’t seen it yet\, now is your chance to witness the sensation that is “magnificent from start to finish” (Limelight).

SUMMARY:The Removalists
DESCRIPTION:David Williamson’s The Removalists is still as provocative and relevant as it was at its debut. \nWhen The Removalists premiered at Melbourne’s La Mama Theatre in 1971 it put a wrecking ball through the walls of genteel Australian theatre. Profane\, honest and arresting in its depiction of the animal side of humanity\, its most surprising revelation is in how little has changed. \nSet in an inner-suburb of Melbourne\, Fiona and Kate report an act of violence to the police hoping things will be resolved peacefully. However\, the local constabulary like to handle things their own way. Over the course of one evening the hidden currents of competition\, desire and brutality flowing beneath polite society will be dragged out into the open. \nAnne-Louise Sarks directs the bracing revival of this dark satire in a production that sets its gaze on Australia – right here\, right now – and refuses to blink. \nMelbourne Theatre Company celebrates the ongoing legacy of La Mama Theatre’s bold\, unflinching contributions to the independent theatre scene by contributing $5 from the sale of each on-stage ticket during our 2025 season of The Removalists.

SUMMARY:Pain Drunk
DESCRIPTION:Luca\, a free-spirited artist\, and Colette\, a pragmatic but restless Phd student and tutor\, collide in a whirlwind romance. Their attraction is instantaneous\, igniting a passionate relationship filled with creativity\, laughter\, and intense connection. Yet\, as their lives intertwine\, the very qualities that draw them together also drive them apart. \nOver the course of two years\, the stage transforms from their euphoric first encounters to the chaos of shared living. As Luca’s spontaneity and inability to communicate clashes with Colette’s desire for stability and closed off nature\, their differences unravel into fiery arguments\, confrontations\, and moments of tender vulnerability. Each scene explores the push and pull of their love—a dance between longing and frustration\, desire and disappointment. \nDespite their struggles\, they remain inexplicably bound to each other\, grappling with the realisation that while they are not meant to be\, the pull of their connection is impossible to ignore. As they confront their fears and insecurities\, they must decide whether to embrace the tumult or seek the solace of separation.

SUMMARY:Goldfish
DESCRIPTION:Reality and fantasy collide in Goldfish. It’s a dynamic\, inventive performance — a game of eye spy on stage\, where everyday items are transformed through the communal magic of suspended disbelief. \nA solo puppeteer spins a fable for children. We hear a story of people who get rid of time: no night\, no day. This creates a flood\, devastating the land. But when two disaster recovery workers suddenly burst into the theatre\, fiction becomes fact and a new story demands to be told. \nGoldfish is a ground-breaking collaboration between celebrated Tasmanian puppetry company Terrapin and Japan’s Aichi Prefectural Art Theater\, with performers from Australia and Japan. The show does not travel with a set. Instead\, a new set is made for each season using the materials of disaster recovery unique to each place. These materials are then donated to key organisations working in disaster management.

SUMMARY:Never Have I Ever
DESCRIPTION:A night to remember? More like a nightmare best left behind. \nA modern take on Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf?\, this savagely funny Australian premiere comes from the host of The Guilty Feminist podcast and features a powerhouse cast\, including Chika Ikogwe (Heartbreak High)\, Simon Gleeson (Les Misérables)\, Katie Robertson (Five Bedrooms)\, and Sunny S Walia (Shantaram). \nTwo couples gather for a final meal to mark the end of their failed restaurant venture\, but as the wine flows\, so do the long-buried secrets. Fueled by top-shelf alcohol and years of simmering tension\, a seemingly harmless drinking game reveals the power struggles\, resentments\, and fears lurking beneath their friendships. And that’s just the beginning. \nBeneath the laughter\, flirtation\, and casual banter lies a bubbling mix of money\, sex\, race\, and class—served up with biting wit. Never Have I Ever is sharp\, shocking\, and a testament to just how volatile personal politics can be.
