The Shifting Heart is an Australian Drama depicting the xenophobia of Old Australians towards Italian migrants. Set in Collingwood, a working class Melbourne suburb, on Christmas Eve, the play deals with the fortunes of an Italian migrant family. On one side, they have a friendly but noisy relationship with one of their neighbours and the otherside, are in a state of warfare.It is both sentimental and melodramatic drama, well worth coming to see.

Matinee 2pm on Sunday 2nd Dec
