The Great Fire

Belvoir’s The Great Fire

Back in the 1970s, Judith and Patrick built a house in the Adelaide Hills where they raised their kids. But as time went on, the family drifted from the house and the dream it was born from.

Now it’s Christmas 2016. The first grandchild is on the way, and all three generations have gathered back at the house. Julia finds herself at a crossroads. Can the life she and her husband pursued in the first place come good again?

Kit Brookman’s The Great Fire is about family, holding your course, and what to hold onto in the fading triumph of Australian democracy. It features a stellar class including Peter Carroll, Sandy Gore, Shelly Lauman, Geoff Morell and Genevieve Picot.
