“[This] outrageous mockumentary is like Saltburn on shrooms.” - The Guardian


What happens when privilege meets a camera crew?

Starring Sian Clifford in a critically acclaimed performance, this biting satire skewers class, entitlement and celebrity culture with wit and surprising warmth.

Verdi's La Traviata on Sydney Harbour


Inspired by Alexandre Dumas fils’ The Lady of the Camellias, Giuseppe Verdi’s La Traviata is one of opera’s most moving and enduring love stories. It follows the passionate but fragile relationship between the celebrated courtesan Violetta Valéry and the young nobleman Alfredo Germont. As their happiness is threatened by social expectation, sacrifice and illness, Verdi’s music captures both the glamour of Parisian high society and the deep emotional cost beneath it. La Traviata remains a powerful exploration of love, freedom and the price of living outside society’s rules in nineteenth-century France and features unforgettable melodies, intimate drama and heartbreaking humanity.
