Australia vs South Africa
Public season: 8 - 23 February
Schools in Theatre: Term 1, 6 - 29 February
Venue: Subiaco Arts Centre - Theatre
As part of the 2008 Perth International Arts Festival, Barking Gecko presents Australia vs South Africa, a funny, physical and thought-provoking play about competition, nationalism and international sport, aimed at adults and young people over 12 years of age.
Direct from a sell-out season at Sydney Theatre Company, the production brings together South African comedy duo Bheki Mkhwane and Ellis Pearson and Perth's own Sam Longley (Shakespeare in the Park) and Craig Williams (The Stones).
The South Africans are here to play the test match of the new millennium and our sporting reputation and national pride are on the line. Expect a capacity crowd at the ground and thousands of fans - Aussies and South Africans - at big screen TVs across the city. Security will be tight, and there will be no room for inappropriate behaviour. The sport could be cricket, hockey, netball or rugby... here, the real action takes place in the crowd and outside the stadium.
The season kicks off February 8 at Subiaco Arts Centre Theatre, running Wednesdays to Saturdays at 7pm (plus a 2pm matinee Saturdays) until 23 February. Book now via BOCS Ticketing for this unique international theatre experience.
All tickets $19.90 each. Book through BOCS.
Special offer: A free ticket to an Emirates Western Force game for every ticket you buy to Australia vs South Africa.
Rugby ticket to be collected on the day of the performance. Valid for a particular game, date etc to be confirmed.
