Gallipoli

"...a landmark production." The Sydney Morning Herald

In this epic production internationally-acclaimed theatre director Nigel Jamieson brings a cast of over 40 performers to the stage of Sydney Theatre in one of the most ambitious productions ever staged by Sydney Theatre Company.

Combining spectacle, mass choreography and choral work, aerial performance and huge projected images across multiple tiers of set, this is a truly explosive work.

Each year we pledge to remember the Diggers, but is this a clear-eyed remembrance or a sentimental version in convenient soft-focus?

Drawn from letters, diaries, contemporary reportage, film footage and official documents, Gallipoli features the STC Actors Company on stage with the third year acting students of NIDA.

Gallipoli re-examines a story at the very bedrock of Australian identity, with seismic results. Unmissable!
