Woodcourt Art Theatre Double Bill
A pair of hour-long plays from the acclaimed Sydney sharehouse stage company.
Overview
One of Australia's most promising young theatre companies is on its way to Melbourne. Founded in a sharehouse in Sydney, Woodcourt Art Theatre caught the attention of audiences following a highly successful tour to Adelaide Fringe in 2014. Now they're heading to Carlton's La Mama Theatre with a pair of critically acclaimed plays, for a strictly limited season beginning Wednesday, February 24.
The first work in the Woodcourt double bill puts a new spin on an old classic. In Carly and Troy do 'A Doll's House', a pair of theatremakers argue over the best way to adapt Henrik Ibsen's iconic play. Carly wants a surreal, postmodern take, whereas Troy envisions a show-stopping musical with music by Beyonce.
Things get a little more serious on the other side of intermission with Encounter, a scaled back tale of anxiety and paranoia brought on by a supernatural visitation.
