Shank
A Playreading
This is golf but not as you know it in Australia’s new comedy country/ rock-musical. Grab your clubs and head up north to Saltbush Downs Gold and Country Club, the most remote course known to man. How did they do it? A golfing mecca in the desert.? It’s the night of the Gala Dinner, the night before the Desert Open Classic Tournament … the world watches on. Join the tragically flawed couple Dorinda and Travis Divott, club founders as they throw out the Rules of Golf and show you how to play golf Outback-style. Shank is a sand in the air, kangaroos in the top paddock, clubs and balls flying overhead, fast-tempo farcical-comedy. Hold onto your buggy and keep your head down and your beers cold as we head up north for a brand new comedy music-theatre farce.. A Tragedy of truly... er Shakespearean proportions.. Come and play a round with us! Putters at Ten Paces!
On a course with kangaroo plagues, Australia’s only par 10 hole and stolen water from the Coopers Creek, The Divotts live for the game of golf and seek to somehow find a way to put Saltbush Downs on the world golfing map, come hell or high water. Corruption, Greed and just plain home-grown Australian stupidity sees the Divotts swinging high and scoring low in a sensational new cutting- edge Outback Golf Musical cabaret show that lifts the lid on this ancient game. Comedy/Cabaret/Theatre/Musical/Psychotherapy!? You Decide.. Join us on the putting green if you dare !
“If Shakespeare was Australian, and he lived today and he lived in the Outback and he played golf badly.. he may very well have written this play”
