Montague Basement and Red Line Productions present The Great Australian Play.
Australia, 1930. As the Great Depression tightens its grip on a hungry, fledgling nation, Harold Bell Lasseter charms everyone with his story of a fabulously wealthy 'reef' of gold hidden in the vast Interior. Brave adventurers set off in search of riches and salvation... but the expedition descends into a nightmare.
Australia, 2022. Lockdowns and relentless funding cuts have left the arts community weary and desperate. Five intrepid screenwriters lock themselves away to create the next great Australian story out of the myth of Lasseter's Reef. But for these unlucky souls, trapped inside a story they haven't begun to understand, the real nightmare is yet to begin.
After a Green Room-nominated season at Melbourne's Theatre Works in 2020, Kim Ho and Montague Basement have reimagined this ingenious satire for a post-pandemic Australia.
