The Bakehouse Theatre Presents THE EISTEDDFOD, Previews April 28

By:

Bookings are now open for THE EISTEDDFOD by Lally Katz
Presented by five.point.one

The Eisteddfod is a funny, dark and quirky fantasy that is like a Chinese puzzle; a play, within a play, within a play.

"groundbreaking, challenging theatre" The Advertiser

Following the bizarre death of their parents, Abalone and Gerture retreat to their family home, cutting themselves off from the outside world. Theirs is a claustrophobic relationship where the line between fantasy and reality has become increasingly blurred...
The Eisteddfod is a darkly comic and magical fantasy that explores suburban childhood and the role of performance in our daily lives, written by one of Australia's most groundbreaking playwrights.
