when: 06 - 21 December 2024 | venue: Belvoir Street Theatre | cost: Starting from $$25 | address: 25 Belvoir Street, Surry Hills NSW 2010Winner of the prestigious Patrick White Playwright’s Award, this kooky tragicomedy was considered unproducible for close to a decade – “too outrageous,” “too depraved,” “too expensive” – until now…
Set on the sun-drenched Gold Coast during Schoolies Week, this modern-day fable begins when Dido, a sad girl from North Queensland, rocks up at her estranged family’s deteriorating residential high-rise building ‘The Great White’ to ask a favour. However, when Dido’s father refuses to loan her the cash for weight-loss surgery in Brazil, she must team up with her cunning twink stepbrother who knows how to make money from men online. Meanwhile, Eunice, the White family’s ageing matriarch, has found out that she is the prime suspect in a criminal investigation, but refuses to do the one thing that’ll keep her family out of jail: sell the building.
Packed with characters you’ll love to hate, Hot Tub lampoons the absurdities of Australia's tasteless upper crust who will stop at nothing to protect their spot on the beach. This December, prepare for an unforgettable evening of explosive secrets, cosmic justice, karaoke, and hot-tubbing in Australia’s sexiest playground.
