‘Travelling North’
by David Williamson

A heart warming comedy about a twilight love affair, ‘Travelling North’ is David Williamson’s tribute to the generation that fought for change in Australia from the ‘30s to the ‘70s. Set in the early 1970s, this beautiful play explores the attitudes of the era with great heart. Starring Terence Donovan (Neighbours) and Sandy Gore (Brides of Christ), this award-winning comedy by Australia’s leading playwright will inspire and delight audiences with its messages of life, renewal and growth.

“Travelling North ... is a moving homage to age, Frank and Frances demand the right to live a life not defined by children. This is David Williamson in top form. Sharp, spiky dialogue. Themes that are at the heart of all our lives.” – Bruce Myles, Director hitproductions.com.au Frank and Frances are looking for a new life, much to the consternation of their conventional children. Their dream takes them North to the sun, but no sooner do they find their idyll than signs of mortality betray Frank’s lion spirit.
