Australian Premiere

Orpheus

Theatre / Folk

Dave is single, stood with his mates at the bar, and is turning 30 next week.
Eurydice is a mythical dryad - a tree nymph.

This is a tale of impossible, death defying love; a tale of this world and the underworld; a tale of soul music and late night karaoke. Told through spoken word and soaring live music, The Flanagan Collective weave a world full of dive bars and side streets and ancient gods.

International award winning company behind FABLE (★★★★★ ClothesLine) and BABYLON (★★★★★ GreatScott) return to Adelaide with a new, modern telling of Orpheus & The Underworld.

Venue

Adelaide Botanic Garden

An idyllic and peaceful black box theatre, an outdoor rose garden bar by Blanco, and views of the Adelaide Botanic Gardens lake and the Conservatory. With ample parking on Hackney road (next to the Wine Centre), the Noel Lothian Hall is not your typical fringe venue. Home to a season of theatrical events, curated by Artistic Director Joanne Hartstone (The Bunker Trilogy, My Name Is Saoirse, The Girl Who Jumped Off The Hollywood Sign) and run by South Australian Artists. The Noel Lothian Hall is a blank canvas for theatre performers (a bricks and mortar building with modern technical capabilities, silence and blackout!) and a gorgeous retreat for patrons from the busy bustle of the fringe.

Enter via Hackney Rd / Plane Tree Drive, (first left turn into car park - in front of International Rose Garden), Adelaide, SA, 5000
