ABOUT THE PLAY
'When I see a forest of trees
I see a lot of old growth
Old ideas
Comfortable trunks with their feet dug in
Not making any room for anything new
Starving out anything young
That’s what I see
and it makes me
want to have
a bit of a clear out'. Tinderbox, by Alana Valentine, reunites the acclaimed team who recently presented the rave-reviewed Tarantula in October this year. With an original score by John Encarnacao, Tinderbox is a searing theatrical experimentation of poetry and music and a harrowing story of destruction and regeneration in the lives of three compelling characters. Tinderbox will intrigue and inspire you with the durability of love under even the most onerous circumstances. Running Time: 70 minutes with no interval

WHAT IS THEATRE 19? Theatre 19 is a new season of independent theatre featuring brand new works by some of Sydney's most exciting companies. While Darlinghurst Theatre Company's energies are focused on fitting out and opening its new theatre the Eternity Playhouse, these companies will be making good use of the company's current venue in Potts Point. The season includes: The Greening of Grace written and directed by well-known Australian artist William Zappa (Winter's Discontent, The Seafarer) and starring Maggie Blinco; the Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award-winning play, Glengarry Glen Ross presented by new independent cooperative, SeriousBoys Theatre; Dirty Blonde about the legendary stage and screen actress Mae West directed by Stuart Maunder (The Music of Andrew Lloyd Webber, Dusty, Shout!); Tinderbox, a dramatic new production by Tredwood Productions about fire and its emotional impact; and a bold new adaptation of the Tony Award-winning Torch Song Trilogy directed by Stephen Colyer (The Paris Letter), which will be presented as part of Mardi Gras 2013. We encourage you to get along to Darlinghurst Theatre and experience the work of some of Sydney's most exciting independent artists.
