August: Osage County |
| 7.30pm @ Sydney Theatre$40 - $90 | |
August: Osage County Hailed by critics as the great American play of our time, August: Osage County is a rare gem of a drama. In the tradition of Eugene O'Neill, Tennessee Williams and Arthur Miller, playwright Tracy Letts tells a story of grand scale that is at once entertaining, funny and deeply moving. By showing us this family in meltdown Letts' play holds a magnifying glass up to American society today, revealing its tragic dysfunction and lost idealism. STC Box Office - 02 9250 1777

Josh Thomas - Surprise Australia got to know Josh Thomas in 2009 as the Gen Y team captain on the Network Ten's megahit Talkin' 'Bout Your Generation. We all felt we got to know him a little bit better when we watched him fall victim to an uncooperative meringue on episode one of Celebrity MasterChef. We saw him shine on Good News Week and take on whatever assignment the The 7PM Project set for him. Sydney Opera House Boxoffice - 02 9250 7777
