Michelle Buxton, Co-Director of The Garden:
The Garden has always been a place for making memories and after another year of lockdowns and restrictions I think we will all enjoy the chance to make some new ones. This year’s line-up is all about variety. We are very proud to present Australia’s most outstanding comedians, some of the best homegrown circus, music and cabaret along with magic and interactive theatre that is sure to leave you dumbstruck with curiosity.
As always, the safety of Garden goers is of the utmost importance to us. We will continue to adapt and evolve our Covid-19 safety measures in accordance with best practice and the most current South Australian Government Covid-19 guidelines.
I encourage everyone to get out and support the arts in 2022. We look forward to celebrating 20 years of The Garden with you.
