The Griffin Theatre has decided to put a twist on the traditional book club concept, and are introducing a new event – Script Club.
Griffin has scheduled four events over the coming months which will rediscover and discuss classic Australian plays. Discussions will be led by John McCallum, theatre critic for The Australian and senior lecturer in theatre at UNSW.
“There are many great plays in the Australian repertoire that have, mysteriously, been more or less forgotten. They still have a lot in them to excite us and to say to us, and they ought to be revived. The Script Club highlights four of these,” McCallum said.
The plays to be explored includeBrumby Innes by Katharine Susannah Pritchard,Netherwood by Patrick White,The Golden Oldies by Dorothy Hewett andThe Precious Womanby Louis Nowra.
Each meeting is limited to a capacity of 20, so be sure to check dates and book tickets quick!
