Welcome to the world of Minecraft, where creativity doesn’t just help you craft, it’s essential to one’s survival! Four misfits—Garrett “The Garbage Man” Garrison (Momoa), Henry (Hansen), Natalie (Myers) and Dawn (Brooks)—find themselves struggling with ordinary problems when they are suddenly pulled through a mysterious portal into the Overworld: a bizarre, cubic wonderland that thrives on imagination. To get back home, they’ll have to master this world (and protect it from evil things like Piglins and Zombies, too) while embarking on a magical quest with an unexpected, expert crafter, Steve (Black). Together, their adventure will challenge all five to be bold and to reconnect with the qualities that make each of them uniquely creative…the very skills they need to thrive back in the real world.

Commissioning Credit: Originally commissioned by Malthouse Theatre and co-presented by Malthouse Theatre and Belvoir Looking for Alibrandi By Vidya Rajan Based on the novel by Melina Marchetta Josie Alibrandi is in her final year of high school. Whip-smart and aspirational, she is a third-generation Italian teenager and scholarship kid, with the shadow of a family curse and a penchant for rule-breaking. Juggling grades, boys, and the claustrophobia of an overbearing nonna and saintly mother, Josie’s life becomes tangled in the webs of class, identity, and family history as she finds her place in a changing world. Iconic novel and cult movie, Looking for Alibrandi is the honest and empowered portrait of 1990s Mediterranean culture that spoke for the first time about systemic racism in Australia from a migrant perspective. It defined a generation and to this day resonates with those caught in the stranglehold of identity and othering in this country. Award-winning director Stephen Nicolazzo (Loaded, Merciless Gods) brought Melina Marchetta’s iconic best-selling novel - which she adapted into the cult 2000 movie - to the stage for the first time, where Vidya Rajan’s AWGIE nominated adaptation joined three generations of women in a passionate, heart wrenching, and unmissable rendering of the Australian classic. With live passata sauce making, traditional Italian music and a soundtrack of Australian pop classics, Looking for Alibrandi is a vibrant theatrical experience full of passion, laughs, and beauty. Now, as part of Brink’s next chapter, this hilarious, spirited and heart-warming production returns for a national tour starring original cast members Chanella Macri, Lucia Mastrantone, Jennifer Vuletic, Ashton Malcom, Riley Warner and Chris Asimos. Performed in English and Italian Director: Stephen Nicolazzo Writer: Vidya Rajan Set and Costume Design: Kate Davis Lighting Design: Katie Sfetkidis Sound Design: Daniel Nixon Musicians: Rosa Voto and Renato Vacerca Tarantella Choreography: Rosa Voto Dialect Coach: Paulo Bongiovanni Cultural and Language Consultant: Lucia Mastrantone ★★★★★ “Clever, heartening and well-crafted. Nicolazzo’s passion for the piece is palpable; his bold, stylised production is rich with symbolism but stark enough to allow the actors to give beautifully, distinctive performances full of detail and gravitas.” Theatre Matters ★★★★1/2 "This comical and beautifully honest look at cultural identity, class and trauma is brought to vivid life in director Stephen Nicolazzo and writer Vidya Rajan’s ridiculously enjoyable sunbeam of a production.” Arts Hub ★★★★ “Chanella Macri is perfectly cast” The AU Review ★★★★ “A heart-warming tale whose humour, honesty, radiant social relevance and narrative longevity can survive not only novel and film incarnations, but now, I’m delighted to report, a stage play too." Theatre Now “Dark and uncompromising. It will resonate with subsequent waves of migrants” The Australian “Achingly raw…painfully, beautifully rendered…Timeless” Image Credit: Daniel Boud

After selling out his 2024 shows, Australia's country music legend Lee Kernaghan is bringing his Boys From The Bush – The Concert to more towns around Australia in 2025. Lee Kernaghan burst onto the Australian music scene over three decades ago with a fresh approach of synthesising traditional country themes with his own experiences growing up in regional Australia. His unique style of Australian country music paying homage to our great land, its people, culture, and the hard-working lifestyle struck a chord with a younger generation of fans. Lee’s amazing career is one of trailblazing music making and a deep connection to his fans and regional communities. He continues to deliver exciting live concert productions by fusing arena-rock bravado with country music’s heart and soul, by joining the traditional country stories with real life on the land sensibilities and values, and in the process he continues to lead the pack in modernising and growing the genre and community that he fondly calls his mates. Classics including The Outback Club, Boys From The Bush, Hat Town, She’s My Ute, Australian Boy and Backroad Nation are the modern day anthems for generations of Australians living and working on the land. Lee’s 13 chart-topping albums and 3 Greatest Hits packages have delivered 40 #1 hit singles, 38 Golden Guitars, 4 ARIA’s and has been named Hitmaker Of The Decade twice. Through his work with regional communities in times of drought, fire and flood Lee was named Australian Of The Year in 2008. His sold out concert tours have cemented Lee Kernaghan as a touring juggernaut and one of the greatest live entertainers in Australia. Boys From The Bush – The Concert has been hailed as his biggest and most epic touring production to date and features Special Guests Robby Kernaghan, Tori Darke and Matt Cornell.

A Windmill Theatre Company Production. Windmill Theatre Co is supported by the Government of South Australia and the Australian Government through Creative Australia, its arts funding and advisory body. Microscopic. Indestructible. (this is the tag line) Tardigrades… perhaps you’ve heard of them? Small but mighty, they have withstood multiple extinction periods, surviving boiling temperatures and the freezing temperatures of space. With a surprising cult following, some people call them ‘Water Bears’, others call them ‘Moss Piglets’. Moss Piglet is an explosive portrait of the world’s most resilient and curious critters. Taking young audiences from jelly-filled petri dishes to the depths of a volcano to Arctic glaciers to the moon, the work explodes the mysteries of the wildly weird tardigrade. Playful and thrilling, Moss Piglet is an epic new work about how even the tiniest of things can be the strongest. Think Bruce Willis in Die Hard… but teeny tiny with eight legs… who loves moss.

This is an onstage seated event. Presented by Country Arts SA, Dream Big, Insite Arts Produced by Insite Arts & Compagnia TPO Saltbush is a plant that can be found across Australia and so it represents a common thread between Indigenous nations and First Nations peoples. This shared idea acted as a point of inspiration for the narrative, contemporary painting, dance, and instrumental music created by First Nations artists. These artistic forms were used as a means of interpreting the natural features of the landscape in an Indigenous mythological context. Saltbush centres on the journey of two friends and their spiritual guide on foot as they cross Australian landscapes – river country, an urban landscape, desert, and the sea. The journey is one of discovering the land, growing an understanding, and acknowledging how it shapes and inspires personal journeys. Through its use of sensor and infrared cameras, Saltbush allows young audiences to interact, play and perform in the show. It also provides a unique experience for parents and teachers as they witness the children become involved. Compagnia TPO’s award-winning artistry in multi-media theatre is combined with the work of acclaimed First Nations artists – composer Lou Bennett ( Yorta Yorta/ Dja Dja Wurrung) with Spartaco Cortesi (Italy), visual artist Delwyn Mannix (Wangkangurru) with Digital Designer: Elsa Mersi & Rossano Monti (Italy), choreography Deon Hastie (Tjapukai) with Anna Balducci, Sasha Zahra (dramaturgy) with artistic direction of Insite Arts director Jason Cross and TPO director Davide Venturini.
