Ensemble Theatre is presenting Aidan Fennessy’s The Heartbreak Choir, a joyous love song to community and friendship, from 29th November 2024 – 12th January 2025.

Audience favourites Valerie Bader (Suddenly Last Summer), Nancy Denis (Clyde’s), and Jay Laga’aia (TV’s Play School) unite with director Anna Ledwich (Photograph 51) to celebrate connection, hope, and the healing power of music.

Trouble is afoot in the old CFA hall on the outskirts of town. When a fracture forms in the local choir, a small band of community misfits are pushed out into the cold. The only thing left to do? Rebrand! They’ve formed a new group, got a cracking new name and the town’s winery is all set for their debut performance. Now, if only they can find the perfect song to really bring the house down…

Additional cast members include Tyallah Bullock (Malthouse Theatre’s Macbeth An Undoing), and Carita Farrer Spencer (NICA’s Famous), alongside Jasper Lee Lindsay (Belvoir’s Blessed Union), and Georgina Symes (Killing Katie: Confessions Of A Book Club).

Don't miss this joyous conclusion to Ensemble’s 2024 Season.
