It’s Sydney. It’s Christmas. And it’s stinking hot. Even though she’s unable to be there, Mum is insisting the family gather for a festive celebration in honour of Dad – he was the BBQ king!
Their adult children, wine snob Peter and cynical Connie, reluctantly get the clan together. In raising a toast to their Dad’s memory, old grudges and family tensions sizzle to the surface. Surely they’ll be able to stop grilling each other for one day – it’s Christmas after all.
With a scorching ensemble under the direction of Mark Kilmurry, don’t miss Sam O’ Sullivan’s blistering comedy about the ridiculous holiday season in all its glory.
Ensemble Theatre’s commission of an BOXING DAY BBQ was made possible thanks to the generous donation of Jenny and Guy Reynolds AO.
