Description
The ensemble uses the Richard Davey Amphitheatre to present regional stories through dramatic performances. Shows take place in an open-air setting where actors and audiences share the region's history together.
History
The company was founded in Western Australia in 1972 and initially traveled through remote mining and Aboriginal communities. It settled in Tasmania in 1980 and has shaped the local theatre scene since then.
Culture
The company brings Tasmanian stories to life on stage, showing how the region keeps its past alive through performance. This form of storytelling connects people with their own roots and makes history tangible.
Practical
The main show runs daily at 5:30 PM from September to May and lasts about 90 minutes. Visitors should dress warmly as performances are outdoors and weather in this region can change quickly.
