Melbourne Theatre Company acknowledges the Boon Wurrung and Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung peoples of the Kulin Nation, the Traditional Custodians of the land on which we work, create and gather. We pay our respects to all First Nations people, their Elders past and present, and their enduring connections to Country, knowledge and stories. As a Company we remain committed to the invitation of the Uluru Statement from the Heart and its call for voice, truth and treaty.

Dancing, laughing and nuclear physics – it’s been a pleasure watching Sarah Peirse, Pamela Rabe and William Zappa bring Lucy Kirkwood’s brilliant new play to life.

The Children plays at Southbank Theatre from 3 February.
