Join our island’s artists for a series of bespoke play readings featuring extraordinary theatre works by acclaimed Australian playwrights.

Road Works is the perfect winter theatre program, connecting audiences and artists across our island through relaxed and engaging evenings at the theatre, showcasing readings of powerhouse plays, and sparking rich conversations around creativity and the theatre-going experience.

Featuring an ensemble of Tasmania’s finest emerging and established artists, curated by Jane Johnson, Jane Longhurst and Gabrielle Adkins.

Three family members, three monologues, one day, and a heartbreaking tragedy of miscommunication. A woman. A man. A girl. Over the course of a single day these three voices from one family intertwine to tell a story of isolation in regional Australia. Moments missed, dreams not shared and the tragedy of the everyday course through this powerful and redemptive tale about the need to connect.

Red Sky Morning is a powerful example of what theatre does best, the telling of stories from heart to heart and mind to mind.
