Claudel – Sydney Opera House

AussieTheatre has TWO double passes to giveaway to Claudel at The Playhouse, Sydney Opera House on Friday 23rd April 2021 @  7:30pm.

Claudel is a thrilling reimagining of the story of one of the world’s greatest and most misunderstood sculptors, Camille Claudel and her complex relationship with legendary artist, Auguste Rodin.

Claudel is a combination of narrative, dance, sculpture and music. It will have its Australian premiere at The Playhouse, Sydney Opera House from 23 April.

 Written and directed by acclaimed playwright Wendy Beckett and Choreographed by the internationally celebrated Meryl Tankard, CLAUDEL explores the life of the highly talented and rebellious young sculptor Camille Claudel.  Set in 1880s Paris, this haunting drama unflinchingly questions the notions of genius versus madness and the consequences for those who chose lives that are deemed too different for society to tolerate.

Claudel directed by Wendy Beckett with choreography by Meryl Tankard first premiered in March 2018 at the historic Athénée Theatre in Paris, France followed by a limited season at Festival OFF d’Avignon.

Rising Star of the British Shakespearean stage Imogen Sage (Measure for Measure -Shakespeare’s Globe Theatre and Rebecca – Kneehigh Theatre) fresh from feature-film Dark Noise for Clara Chong makes her Sydney Opera House debut in the title-role, Camille Claudel.

Stage and Television Stalwart Christopher Stollery previously gracing the small screen in Frayed (ABC/Sky Comedy UK), Dom & Adrian (Easy Tiger), Top of the Lake (BBC UKTV) and stages in City of Gold (Queensland Theatre), Antony & Cleopatra (Sport for Jove) and Rosencrantz & Guildenstern Are Dead (Sydney Theatre Company) joins the cast as French sculptor Auguste Rodin.

Competition closes Friday 9th April 2021 at 6pm AEST. Winners will be contacted via email/phone.
