Synopsis

Winner of multiple awards, including the Molière Award for Best Play, The Father is a modern classic that explores the heartbreaking and disorienting world of old age through the eyes of André, a proud man whose grasp on reality begins to slip away. Zeller’s masterful writing, combined with a clever and unsettling staging structure, invites the audience to experience confusion, tenderness, laughter and loss in equal measure — a journey that is at once gripping and profoundly human.

Tom Irvine brings fresh vision, ideas and sensitivity to this production utilising the tech skills of the Theatre production team- guiding the audience through a story that is both intimate and universal. Audiences can expect an evening of thought-provoking theatre that lingers long after the final curtain.

Don’t miss this summer production a gripping exploration of memory, identity, and love.

Written by Florina Zeller,
