After 24 years, Closer, a cult classic by Patrick Marber returns to La Boite to get under the audience’s skin once again.

Artistic Director Courtney Stewart will direct an all-star Queensland cast in this critically acclaimed work that blends classical tragedy, comedy and melodrama in a contemporary and relatable setting.

The Olivier award-winning work follows the lives of out-of-towner Alice, photographer Anna, obituary writer Dan and dermatologist Larry over several years as they meet, bond, separate and move on.

Described as “bruising and beautiful”, Closer offers a confronting reality about how adults approach relationships.

Closer turns its intricate focus on sexual politics, examines the myths of love and romance and dissects the inevitable fall-out when adults cross the lines between love and lust.
