Critically acclaimed Australian play Motherland is set to play Glen Street Theatre from Tuesday May 17.
Premiering in Brisbane in 2013, Motherland has won a plethora of awards since its debut, including the Matilda Award for Best Independent Production and the Groundlings Award for Best Overall Production.
The creation of Kathryn Lyall-Watson, directed by Caroline Dunphy, tells the story of three women living in vastly different times and places, each united in the heartache of exile from their homes. Brisbane-born Nell is trapped after marrying the Russian Prime Minister, while writer Nina struggles to return to Russia after spending most of her life in Paris, and Aloyna is watching her Australian future crumble before her eyes after leaving Russia to marry a Brisbane businessman.
During its run week, there will be special captioned performances as well as a meet the cast evening on the opening night.
Motherland will run at Glen Street Theatre from Tuesday May 17 to Sunday May 22. For ticketing information see the official website here.
