About Whitefella Yella Tree

First love: joyous, sweet and youthful. Two boys from neighbouring mobs, puffed up with teenage giddiness, poised on the edge of a world about to change. Their budding love taking root in Country that is about to be declared ‘Australia’.

Following a celebrated premiere season at Griffin Theatre Company, this production is the Sydney Theatre Company debut of Palawa playwright, Dylan Van Den Berg. Directed with subtlety and sophistication by Declan Greene and Wiradjuri and Worimi theatremaker Amy Sole, and featuring Pertame and Tiwi actor Joseph Althouse (The Visitors), Whitefella Yella Tree is “subtle, clever and straight to the heart” (ArtsHub).

Accessibility

Wharf 1 Theatre is on Level 2 of The Wharf. The majority of patrons will enter via Doors 1 and 2 which can be reached most directly via the lift at the end of The Wharf. This provides level access from the exterior apron of The Wharf at Ground Level, right up to the Theatre on Level 2.

We also have a level access point to Wharf 1 Theatre through Door 3 for people seated in A row, which allows patrons to go directly into the theatre. Access to Door 3 is only on request and these requests should be made at the Box Office at the time of booking.

Level access to Level 1 is via any of the three lifts along the exterior of The Wharf. Each of these lifts can be accessed via ground floor, however the lift at the end of The Wharf provides the most direct access.

Please inform the Sydney Theatre Company Box Office at least 24 hours in advance to ensure they are able to assist your needs. Call on (02) 9250 1777 or email boxoffice@sydneytheatre.com.au.
