An unlikely troupe comes together in Cosi at La Boite
The Roundhouse Theatre will host La Boite’s new production of Australian comedy classic Cosi from Saturday February 8 until Saturday March 8.
Starring Jessica Marais and James Stewart, Cosi tells the story of theatre director Lewis, who is kicking off his career by staging a production of Mozart’s opera Così fan tutte – with a cast that is made up entirely of patients from a mental institution.
Organising an Italian opera starring a group of people who can neither speak Italian nor sing may present its challenges, but Lewis is determined to pull this unlikely bunch together. Directed by David Berthold, Cosi will also mark La Boite Theatre Company’s tenth anniversary at the Roundhouse Theatre at Kelvin Grove.
