Marlin

Melbourne Theatre Company and Arena Theatre Company have teamed up for the first time in twenty years to premiere a captivating new work exploring the special relationship between grandparents and grandchildren, and themes of grief, redemption and victory. Played in a boat on a sea of foam, Marlin opens on Friday 26 September at Southbank Theatre, The Lawler.

Directed by Arena's Artistic Director Christian Leavesley, this thrilling production for both school and school holiday audiences stars Ashlea Pyke and Christopher Bunworth alongside several specially crafted puppets masterfully handled by Jacob Williams, who was most recently seen as Principal Puppeteer in King Kong.
