Theatre Performance

‘Feet of Clay’ is a tale of political manipulation, murder and self-realisation.

Someone is killing Lord Vetinari, Patrician of Ankh-Morpork. No one knows who; no one knows why; and, worst of all, no one knows how – he just gets weaker and weaker.

But, it’s not just Vetinari. Across the city, people are being murdered, but there’s no trace of anything alive having been at the crime scene. Commander Vimes, Head of the City Watch, is a man who hates “clues”. He and his team must question everyone – the butcher, the baker, the candlestick maker…

In a city teeming with vampires, werewolves, dwarfs with attitude, and golems, Vimes must solve the crime and save the Patrician.

Theatre Performance

Under the watchful gaze of his young assistant and a growing competitive presence of a new generation of artists, Mark Rothko takes on his greatest challenge yet: to create a definitive series of paintings for the Philip Johnson-designed Four Seasons restaurant in the iconic Seagram Building.

A moving and compelling account of one of the greatest artists of the twentieth century, Mark Rothko, ‘Red’ takes a compelling look at the ever-changing relationship between an artist and his creations.

Event Details

Presented by The Curators
Theatre Performance

The Curators’ timely revival of Philip Ridley’s modern masterpiece ‘Vincent River’ debuts at Christ Church, Brisbane’s newest, inner-city, indie theatre venue, from 13 – 31 October 2020 for 13 performances only.

Vincent River is dead and seventeen-year-old Davey has been shadowing Anita since her son’s death. A mother… a stranger… denials, lies, half-truths and shocking disclosures. The confrontation is brutal. Why is he so traumatised? Why has he been following her? Why is he so hungry for the details of Vincent’s life?

The dramatic tension of this 80-minute, taut, two-hander ramps up as Davey’s account of events is subjected to the devastating and unrelenting logic of a grieving mother’s scrutiny. Seeking comfort, absolution, understanding, and bound together by the memory of Vincent, these two accuse, excuse, plead and bear witness.
