Every summer, Barney and Roo return from the Queensland canefields to the suburban Melbourne house they share with Nancy and Olive for their annual season of leisure. This year though, Nancy’s gone and got married, Pearl’s taking her place… and after seventeen years, good things are coming to an end.
Summer of the Seventeenth Doll is one of the pillars of our national theatre. With its premiere in 1955, Australian playwriting came of age. Rooted in larrikin culture, mateship and urban life, The Doll is about people trapped in their past, but also about regeneration: about shedding the shell of habit, facing the future, and finding life anew.
Robert Jarman, Tasmania’s leading and most highly awarded theatre director, returns to the Playhouse Theatre, where he last staged our haunting production of Journey’s End.
The Doll promises to be a funny, sad, moving and memorable experience.
We acknowledge the Tasmanian Aboriginal people and their enduring custodianship of lutruwita / Tasmania. We honour 40,000 years of uninterrupted care, protection and belonging to these islands, before the invasion and colonisation of European settlement. As a destination that welcomes visitors to these lands, we acknowledge our responsibility to represent to our visitors, Tasmania’s deep and complex history, fully, respectfully and truthfully.
We acknowledge the Aboriginal people who continue to care for this country today. We pay our respects to their elders, past and present. We honour their stories, songs, art, and culture, and their aspirations for the future of their people and these lands. We respectfully ask that tourism be a part of that future.
