Overview

Ever seen a play performed around a live steam train? No, we didn't think so. After staging 2015's The Mayne Effect in a heritage-listed building, the female-led Flowers Theatre Company has scaled things up to a beloved form of transport.

Taking place at Swanbank railway station, their new large-scale production tells the kind of tales women have shared over hot cuppas and passed down over generations — i.e. accounts of wartime living, surviving during periods of combat, and helping the battle from home. Yep, you won't just be watching site-specific theatre; you'll be indulging in a slice of local feminist history as well.
