Poppy Seed Theatre Festival 2016

Overview

Prepare yourself for a fresh dose a local theatre. After a successful first season in 2015, the Poppy Seed Theatre Festival is blossoming once again, showcasing four ambitious new works from Melbourne-based companies over five exciting weeks.

Running from November 8 to December 11, Poppy Seed kicks off with Blessed by Attic Erratic, a dark, candid work about religion, dogma and intergenerational poverty. Next up comes LadyCake, a modern day take on the story of Marie Antoinette presented by Three Birds Theatre. That'll be followed by What's Yours is Mine, described as "an otherworldly experience" about the Australian dream from the unconventional folk at Hotel Now. The festival will wrap up with F. by Riot Stage, an exploration of teenage sex in a post-internet world.
