Amidst a tangle of family dysfunction and unrequited love, a mother and son engage in a battle for affection, recognition and respect. Casualties begin to mount. New Brisbane-based theatre company Now Look Here, led by acclaimed artistic director Kate Wild, is set to launch with The Seagull. Darkly humorous and horribly truthful, Kate’s new translation brings vigour and clarity to Chekhov’s masterpiece. Within the intimate space of the Metro Arts’ Warehouse, an outstanding ensemble including Matthew Filkins, Lizzie Ballinger and Thomas Hutchins will deliver a unique and revelatory theatrical experience.
