Thursday
Brink Productions and English Touring Theatre
By Bryony Lavery
World Premiere
United Kingdom / Australia
Brink Productions joins forces with English Touring Theatre, one of the UK’s leading production companies, on a powerful new collaboration.
Taking reference from the remarkable story of Adelaide woman Gill Hicks, who lost her legs in the 2005 London bombings, Thursday layers dreams with reality, compassion with devastation and identity with loss to build a deeply-woven picture of humanity.
From the makers of the multi-award winning production When The Rain Stops Falling.
