Jacky | Guy Simon Interview

Guy Simon tells us why he can’t wait to sink his teeth into a character as complex as Jacky in Declan Furber Gillick’s whip-smart new work.

Helpmann Award-winner Guy Simon is Jacky in Declan Furber Gillick’s sharp, quick-witted new play about family, community, work and culture. A whip-smart new work from a fresh Aboriginal voice, Jacky is a disarming and original play that asks what it takes to live a meaningful life.
