Feel free to share your favorite theatre memories in the comments below, we would love to hear from you.

Presented as a support group for people who believe they started the Iraq War this dark, boisterous and irreverent musical satire follows a handful of mid-level spies whose vanity and office politics contributed to the worst intelligence blunder in modern history.

17.01.2022 At Foundation Theatres our mission is to provide exceptional experiences for theatre makers and theatre goers and to build a thriving, robust Australian theatre industry for generations to come. COVID-19 has seen our wonderful industry faced with challenges of unprecedented scope and impact. Like many live performance venues, we have worked alongside our producing partners to find a way forward. Collectively we have had to make the agonising decision to cancel or postpone a n...umber of shows in our theatres in order to protect the wider Australian community. Through all this our mission remains unchanged. We are working tirelessly to take care of patrons who have invested in tickets for shows that have been cancelled and plan our next steps to return our theatres to the talented theatre makers and valued theatre goers who make them come to life. When the theatre industry returns to its thriving best, only then will we have time to rest. For more information about shows that have been cancelled please visit: https://www.capitoltheatre.com.au/ & https://www.sydneylyric.com.au/
