It’s time for us to reclaim our Aussie stars from American television. First, Yael Stone, then Ruby Rose…
Stone, riding high on her successful turn in Netflix’sOrange Is The New Black, is set to return to Australian theatre this year, taking a leading role inThe Blind Giant Is Dancing.
A veritable Australian classic,The Blind Giant Is Dancingis the theatrical equivalent of a kick in the teeth. It’s the shocking and subversive tale of a young idealist (played by Dan Spielman in the upcoming Belvoir shows) who finds himself embroiled in a struggle with a party machine that he believes deserted his father.
It’s emotionally charged political theatre of the highest order, and so the Belvoir’s choice to add it to the 2016 roster is exciting indeed.
The Blind Giant Is Dancingkicks off on Saturday February 13 and plays until Sunday March 20. More information is available on the Belvoir Street website, here.
