Probably Australia's most well-known popular playwright, certainly the most awarded with four Honorary Doctorates of Letters, Dr David Williamson AO, is also arguably Australia's best-loved dramaturge.

His plays capture the very essence of being Australian, ostensibly about other things, his plays explore the nature of this wide brown land and its people.



Writing professionally since 1967, Williamson's career has been meteoric and littered with really first-class plays – joys both to perform and to watch - The Department, Travelling North, The Perfectionist, Emerald City, Money and Friends, Brilliant Lies, Don's Party, and possibly the most Australian of them all – The Club.

Set in an Australian Rules Football Club, the play is as much about football as it is about power, with strong overtones and echoes of Julius Caesar in it.

This classic is The Garrick Theatre Club's next production, following a highly successful programme of Salonika, Star Quality, Popcornand Agatha Rex – showing all the variety and versatility this company is known for.


Directed by Andrew Watson, fresh from a triumph at Stirling, who says: "I love my football and the chance to do this show (with) a great cast. This show is full of drama and laughs it's not a comedy but there is a chuckle or two."

And a great cast he has with Peter Neaves, Rex Gray, Luke Miller, Chris Kennedy, David Gribble and Mason Kemp.


The Club runs from September the 28th to the 12th October at Garrick Theatre, 16 Meadow Street, Guildford at 8:00pm, with matinées on the 29th September and the 5th and 6th of October.

Tickets cost $25 for adults ($22 Concessions) and may be booked by ringing Elaine on 9378 1990 or online at TryBooking here
