September 15, 2023 BY

The bold line up of boundary-defying work is a testament to Geelong Arts Centre's daring new program pillar REWIRE, a curation of arts experiences designed to challenge, thrill and delight.

THIS month, Geelong Arts Centre will reveal the capabilities of its brand new theatre spaces with a diverse line-up of riveting shows that celebrate modern theatre experiences.

On September 20-21, Beat Entertainment and Regional Arts Victoria take to The Story House stage for Reckoning.

This powerful celebration of Indigenous culture champions survival, creativity and strength through 60 minutes of original songs, dance and exceptional raw storytelling.

After captivating audiences at Melbourne Fringe Festival, Adelaide Fringe, and across the pond at NZ Fringe Festival, A Lovely Day To Be Online makes its fateful homecoming, gracing The Open House stage on September 22 at 7.30pm.

This original comedic gig­ theatre show from past Creative Engine grant recipient Connor Morel is filled with original soul-pop tunes and a whole lot of heart.

Supported by Geelong Arts Centre, A Lovely Day To Be Online is a hilarious look into internet culture, and a glaring critique into who we become when we leave the real world.
