Queensland Day Play - Mother and Son

Mother and Son by Geoffrey Atherden Presented by Redland Museum and Theatre Redlands. As a celebration of Queensland Day 'Mother and Son', one of Australia's best known and most popular television series, will be brought to life on stage by Theatre Redlands at Redland Museum. The play, by Geoffrey Atherden, the playwright who penned the TV series, will draw audiences into the intimate and occasionally dysfunctional world of the Beare family; Maggie, the increasingly forgetful mother, her live-in, over-wrought son Arthur, his opportunistic and socially successful brother Robert, Robert’s ultra-snob wife Liz and a parade of lesser beings who are entangled in the domestic saga of the Beares. Director Raymond Noonan, a long-time fan of the TV series, says that as soon as he read the script he felt compelled to direct it. Produced to celebrate Queensland Day (6 June), the Redland Museum and Redland Theatre community invites you to join them for theatre and supper / afternoon tea.
