THIS MUCH IS TRUE

About the show

Pull up a bar stool, pour yourself a chardonnay and get ready for a good old-fashioned Darlinghurst yarn. The maraschino cherry on the Trilogy, This Much is True is Louis Nowra’s ode to the old timers, motley crews and unknowing raconteurs that commune at the local watering hole. Now middle-aged and divorced, Lewis weaves together the tales of the larger-than-life characters he calls friends at a historic inner-city pub. Plonked between social housing and multi-million dollar apartments, high flyers and low-lying criminals, This Much is True is a divine comedy that examines the everyday. As the sun sets on The Lewis Trilogy, you’ll leave the SBW Stables Theatre seeing Kings Cross in a magically different light. THE LEWIS TRILOGY With an ensemble of eight of Sydney’s favourite actors including the great Paul Capsis (Angela’s Kitchen), Griffin’s Artistic Director Declan Greene stages three of Louis Nowra’s most iconic plays like you’ve never seen them before—bursting the seams of the SBW Stables Theatre with love, loss and glorious Australiana. Choose to watch all three plays on separate days or enjoy a magical full-day weekend experience—The Lewis Trilogy is a special event of epic proportions that is not to be missed.
