Torch Song Trilogy by Harvey Fierstein

1 Aug 2018 to 26 Aug 2018

DARLINGHURST THEATRE COMPANY

All good things come in threes. 
A heart felt revival of Harvey Fierstein’s classic play with music.

Funny and poignant, Harvey Fierstein’s intensely personal collection of three plays chronicles a Jewish New York drag-queen’s quest for love, respect and a life of which he can be proud.

From a failed affair with a reluctant lover, to a burgeoning relationship with a young fashion model, Arnold Beckoff’s greatest torment in life remains his turbulent relationship with his mother.

In celebration of Darlinghurst Theatre Company’s 25th Anniversary, we continue our longstanding tradition of telling LGBTQI stories with the reprisal of director Stephen Colyer’s 2013 critically acclaimed Torch Song Trilogy. 

“Director Stephen Colyer has created a wickedly funny and energetic trilogy” – Sydney Arts Guide

Simon Corfield is gorgeous in the show….Torch Song Trilogy was a landmark in gay theatre and this revival is simply excellent.” - SX Magazine. 

“Immensely funny, entertaining and moving.” – Australian Stage
