Così

by Louis Nowra

30 April — 8 June 2019

Southbank Theatre, The Sumner

Welcome to the mayhem of Louis Nowra’s Così, a poignant reminder of the transformative power of music and performance, and how art can make us soar – even if just for a moment.

Approximately 2 hours and 40 minutes, including a 20-minute interval.

More Information

Join us for a joyous evening with the much-loved comedy classic, Così.

Louis Nowra's unique Australian comedy comes back to life in this acclaimed new production by director Sarah Goodes (A Doll's House, Part 2).

Inspired by playwright Louis Nowra's own life, this heartwarming production follows young director, Lewis, as he attempts to direct Mozart's opera, Così fan tutte, at a local psychiatric hospital, with a cast who can't sing, act or speak Italian. What could possibly go wrong?

With its crew of loveable characters brought to life by an outstanding ensemble cast, Così is a joyous evening celebrating the power of music, art and community.
