Theatre and Physical Theatre • Comedy
Victoria • SA Premiere

Eight characters, two actors!
Co- directed by renowned Melbourne clowning teacher, Fabio Motta, Sunday Roast serves up a wildly delusional satirical play on the ritual of family dinner. 
Through wild characterisation, two actors will bring to life the seven deadly sins, each representing a member of the Giles family; a laid back father, an overbearing mother, two squabbling sisters, a pretentious son-in- law, a depressive son and a wildly sexual daughter. Then there is the adopted son, Rupert, the voice of reason


"8 stellar performances by 2 extremely charismatic performers. Slick, Sharp, Delicious." – Melbourne Fringe Judge 
“Captivating, hilarious, disturbing."  
“Amazing versatility from both actors. Built into a manic crescendo had us on the edge of our seats!”

 

Presented by: Courtney Miller & Ben McCarthy
