AddressBlacktown High School, 5th Avenue Blacktown
Blacktown City Community Theatre group will stage the classic play Cosi, Friday 14th October through to Friday 23rd October 2005 at the Blacktown Art Centre.
Cosi was first produced in 1992 and has become one of the most successful Australian plays produced in the last decade. A terrific play about madness, illusion, sanityÂ… and theatre. Set in a mental institution in 1971 Lewis, a young director takes on the job of directing a production of MozartÂ’s Cosi Fan Tutte in a burnt out theatre while protests of the Vietnam War are being waged on the outside.
On one level Cosi is a poignant look at life through the eyes of patients in an insane asylum on another itÂ’s a hilarious take on the madness of creative endeavour and the audience learns along with Lewis that when chasing your dreams it helps to be a little crazy
