La Boite Announces 2016 Season

Shakespeare, circus and television actors taking to the stage

La Boite have announced their 2016 season, featuring Shakespeare, circus and television actors taking to the stage. 

CEO and Artistic Director Todd MacDonald said, "This year we push the boundaries of form by collaborating with some extraordinary partners to stretch theatrical, physical and musical boundaries.

"I hope that this varied menu will enliven and inspire our existing audiences and draw new audiences to share in the La Boite experience."

One of those partnerships is with Brisbane-based circus company Circa for When One Door Closes, which features the great women of 20th century drama, Miss Julie, Hedda Gabler and Nora, 6 - 23 April. 

Shakespeare's revenge play The Tragedy Of King Richard III will be directed by Daniel Evans and feature MacDonald and Amy Ingram, 21 May - 11 June. 

A co-production with State Theatre Company Of South Australia of award-winning playwright Young Jean Lee's Straight White Men, runs 27 July - 13 August, exploring contemporary masculinity and male identity.

With Opera Queensland and Brisbane Festival, La Boite will present Snow White, 3 - 24 September, a production that pairs four musicians with four singer/actors, and traverses opera and rock to create an adults only take on Grimm's fairy tale.
