Six Degrees in Melbourne 2018

SIX DEGREES IN MELBOURNE
13th – 25th November
La Mama Courthouse, Carlton

SIX DEGREES IN MELBOURNE was the first production in our 2018 Season. This was the second year of this innovative show, with writers asked to write a script of approx. 15 minutes featuring the location of Flinders Lane and the theme of ‘lost and found, and just two characters: Tally and Beaux. The show blurb for Six Degrees in Melbourne was as follows:

Tally and Beaux An intricate secret. Tally and Beaux. A laneway at midnight. Tally and Beaux. Love, hate, love. Tally and Beaux. A deal gone slightly … hmm. In the second year of this theatrical journey by degrees from Melbourne’s most celebrated writers’ theatre, 6 writers went down to Flinders Lane. Out of the cobblestones, brass plates and cafe chatter, 6 stories were meticulously penned yet only 2 characters created. Tally and Beaux – played by 8 actors. Just to keep you guessing.
