Pricey Grif-friend,
Precisely 4 years in the past this week I first heard the distinctive phrases of Suzie Miller’s Prima Facie learn for the primary time by Sheridan Harbridge whereas sitting at Lee Lewis’s eating desk.
Soar ahead to the current day and Sheridan continues to so generously share her extraordinary and award-winning efficiency to sold-out audiences throughout Australia—once I final noticed her in Geelong she had simply executed her one hundred and fiftieth efficiency. It means a lot to Griffin that we are able to take this story and this name to arms to regional audiences with the identical type of intimacy because the premiere season on the SBW Stables Theatre season. It’s precisely this type of new Australian writing that helps us to know who we’re as a nation, who we need to turn out to be, and makes us take motion. Should you’re in travelling distance of Wagga Wagga, Wodonga, or Toowoomba, don’t miss out.
On the similar time, Suzie is in New York, with the West Finish manufacturing of Prima Facie at present in preview performances and about to open on Broadway. We’re so happy with Suzie and every part she has continues to attain (together with her latest Olivier), and grateful that she nonetheless finds a treasured few hours within the wee hours of the morning to proceed working with us on her subsequent play Jailbaby that hits the SBW Stables Theatre stage in July.
Again in 2019, after that first week of rehearsals involving birthday cake at Lee’s home and vigorous conversations at Suzie’s, we moved to a rehearsal room on the College of Sydney. It’s the identical room wherein now we have simply begun rehearsing Eloise Snape’s Pony. Should you have been fortunate sufficient to see the wild spectacle of Intercourse Magick, you’ll actually know that Griffin doesn’t simply do one-woman productions. However once we do, you’ll need to come alongside. Briallen Clarke goes to have you ever hanging off each one in every of her phrases as she navigates life’s surprising hurdles with a riotous yeehaw and a rocking soundtrack.
Whilst you await Pony to hit the stage, you’ll be able to catch UFO for the following two weeks, created by re:group efficiency collective as the primary providing of Griffin Lookout in 2023. It’s an ingenious, resourceful and improbable piece of theatre that may make you ponder what you’ll do when your entire life is instantly confronted by one thing bewildering and unknown—which we’re actually all a bit aware of. Additionally, you will need to keep nicely after the home lights come as much as stand up shut and private with the set—it’s really a feast for the eyes (however I can’t say an excessive amount of extra!).
Lastly, I’m thrilled to tell you that tickets for each single Griffin manufacturing for 2023 are actually on sale! In fact, one of the best and most reasonably priced solution to save at Griffin is to subscribe, however for those who’re in search of standalone outings to the SBW Stables Theatre—you already know what to do!
See you in our theatre quickly,
