Krishnan's Dairy by Rajan & Lewis Scraps by Joy Hinckley

Between Friday 31 May 2024 and Sunday 2 June 2024
Two plays - One night Timely stories of adaption, immigration, adjustment and sometimes isolation. "Krishnan's Dairy", reportedly New Zealand's favourite play, by NZ playwrights Jacob Rajan and Justin Lewis , has toured the globe justly garnering rave reviews. This wonderful show centres on the travails of a migrant couple, Gobi and Zina Krishnan , who emigrated from India to New Zealand to start a family and run a milk bar. Juggling the demands of running a small business in a strange country, and the ordinary stresses of married life, beget endless frustrations - some comic, some not so. Woven through is the story of Shah Jahan who built the Taj Mahal as a mausoleum for his favourite wife. Evening Opener- "Scraps" - a new gem by local playwright, Joy Hinckley - Two philosophical Brisbane Ibises try to come to terms with history. You'll never look at Bin Chickens ( maybe even history) in quite the same way ever again!

Vinegar Tom by Caryl Churchill

Between Friday 23 August 2024 and Saturday 31 August 2024
“A play on witches with no witches in it.” - Caryl Churchill In a 17th century village, a group of women struggle to survive on their own terms in a society where one label can mean poverty, imprisonment, and death. VINEGAR TOM is a raw drama that directly addresses the fight for control over the inherent power of women. An exciting early play by an acclaimed Obie Award winning author was created in association with a British feminist theatre who requested a play about witches. Although Vinegar Tom is set in the 16th or 17th century in rural England, it has a contemporary feel. It tells the story of two farm women who are named as witches by a man whom they have spurned sexually. Written with and for the Monstrous Regiment Theatre Group, Vinegar Tom goes beyond Miller's The Crucible by showing how the persecution of witchcraft was a suppression of ancient wisdom and traditional medicine.

Georgia by Jill Shearer

Between Friday 11 October 2024 and Saturday 19 October 2024
Georgia Totto O'Keeffe was an American modernist painter and draftswoman whose career spanned seven decades and whose work remained largely independent of major art movements. She is one of the most significant artists of the 20th century, renowned for her contribution to modern art. This complex script, critically acclaimed, by Queensland playwright, Jill Shearer, is based on Georgia O'Keeffe's later years when she was going blind and battling with her love of making art. The playwright explores the dilemma of the older woman: her sexuality in the face of physical deterioration; her mental strength and vulnerability; her need for companionship and paradoxical love of solitude. 3bCreative welcomes Joy Marshall as guest director for this production.
