The Lucky Country

  • Theatre
  • Entertainment

With an original score that nods to some of Australia's all-time greats (Baker Boy, Jimmy Barnes, Kylie, The Seekers, Electric Fields and more), this 65-minute mix-tape of Aussie stories is a wildly entertaining joyride that digs deep into the themes of identity and belonging.

Featuring an ensemble of six outstanding performers and a five-piece band (including yidaki), The Lucky Country is a fresh, funny and heartfelt celebration of who we can be as Australians.

Part of the Melbourne Fringe Festival.
