WIN TICKETS
Enter morally ambiguous territory with Lies, Love and Hitler by Elizabeth Avery Scott - a contemporary Australian drama short listed for 2009 Rodney Seaborn Playwrights Award – playing at The Street Theatre from Thursday 18th November to Saturday 27th November.
Running as part of the independent artist series, Made In Canberra, this work introduces a major new local voice in text-based theatre and asks the question - Is it worse for a liar to tell the truth than for a lover of truth to lie?
Dr Paul Langley, age 39, is slightly mad, and it’s not that he doesn’t have a good brain – like most academics he has a very good brain – it’s just that he thinks he’s a little out of whack, mainly because he keeps saying visions of Dietrich Bonhoeffer, the dead man whose life and work he’s been studying for years. Bonhoeffer was repelled by the evils of fascism and fought against the Nazi regime. He was executed in 1945 when his involvement in the plot to assassinate Hitler was discovered.
Langley finds himself in trouble when he falls for one of his students Hannah Summers. Things become complicated when it is discovered Hannah has a secret which threatens to destroy them both.
We've got 2 double passes to give away to see Love Lies & Hitler at 7pm, Saturday November 20th 2010.
