An epic story of displacement, loss, and adapting to different worlds.Chloe and Hassan are under suspicion for stealing money while feeding the class Axolotl. Sent outside to work out who’s responsible, the unlikely pair find they have something in common. Each of them has been forced by their parents to leave their respective homes and face life as the new kid at school. As their personal histories are revealed, Chloe hears the incredible first-hand account of a 12-year-old boy who’s travelled alone, thousands of kilometres across land and sea, for a better life. Is the discovery of Hassan’s back story enough to save him from Chloe’s desire to protect her position in her new-found friendship group?

On a magnificent set designed by Michael Hankin and lit by Nigel Levings, Circa’s Yaron Lifschitz will create haunting physical shapes with 215 performers drawn from the Adelaide community.Marking the centenary of the 1918 Armistice, Memorial is an engaging insight into the use of words, theatrical technique, and history, and is suitable for senior students.

She has only ever wanted one thing: to be a star.Winner of the inaugural Made in Adelaide award, Joanne Hartstone’s ‘play with music’ takes audiences on a nostalgic journey through the Golden Age of Hollywood from a whole new perspective.

An isolated volcanic island emerges from the ocean. A seed floats in from distant shores, finding purchase on the rock. A beetle, clinging to driftwood, washes ashore. Time and currents bring more and more new arrivals, by accident and design, to create a rich and varied home.Songs for Those Who’ve Come Across the Seas is a prog-rock cabaret show exploring the beauty and strength of diversity. Featuring original songs, fabulous projected imagery and Slingsby’s immersive and thought-provoking theatre making.

way to access it (access has changed with the redevelopment!)

PREPARING YOUR STUDENTS FOR LEARNINGBefore bringing your students to see a show or take part in a workshop, we recommend that you prepare your students for their learning experience, this may be by running pre visit activities from the teacher resource kit for the show, or talking them through themes, styles and expectations. Students who are prepared for their visit are likely to be more engaged and have a deeper learning experience.
