Prepare to watch the sparks fly as two of the 21st century’s most innovative thinkers empty their brains out in public.
Marxists and contrarians alike rejoice: noted historian Niall Ferguson and social commentator Theodore Dalrymple have both announced one-off Sydney Opera House shows.
The two thinkers are legends in their own right, and though both explore slightly different concepts – Ferguson the shaping of international history, Dalrymple the inequality of wealth distribution – they are united by a sense of moral outrage and the desire to challenge the norm. Tickets will be snapped up fast, so all those ready to have their minds sharpened to a fine point should get on tickets.
Theodore Dalrymple will speak at the Opera House on Monday April 18, and Niall Ferguson will speak on Sunday May 22. More information about both lectures is available at the Opera House website, here.
