Theatre in Sydney

Visit the great sites of Sydney to see how the city has influenced theater and how theater has influenced life in the city.  Engage in the theater scene by participating in events related to the Sydney Festival as well as performances at premier venues throughout the city.

The connection between the history and how it is depicted on stage grows with every generation.  This course is an appreciation of how this growth is seen in contemporary works as well as productions of historical pieces.
