Are you ready to test your survival skills this January? A tale of endurance, masculinity and mateship, Lord of the Flies is set to pack a punch as it crash lands into Beenleigh this January. Starting the New Year with a bang, this production will explode onto stage, thrilling audiences like never before.

True to William Golding’s classic novel that has left an undeniable impact, Lord of the Flies has been adapted for stage by Nigel Williams, ready for new spectators. When a group of schoolboys survive a catastrophic plane crash, they find themselves deserted on an uninhabited island without adult supervision. As the group struggles to take control, leaders emerge, testing friendships, mortality and superstitions.

Beenleigh Theatre Group is thrilled to host this edgy production on its stage and welcome new director, Bradley Chapman. Chapman is an award-winning creative who has directed and performed in professional venues across Queensland for several years. As a Drama educator, he is excited at embarking on this challenging and intense opportunity. Lord of the Flies features a cast of 10 adolescent boys, ranging in ages from 9-years-old to 22-years-old – some of Gold Coast’s most talented rising stars.

Lord of the Flies will play to audiences from Friday January 19 until Saturday February 3 2018. Performance times vary between Friday, Saturday and Sunday evenings, with shows commencing at 7:30 pm (Friday and Sunday) and 6:30 pm (Sundays).
