Performer and writer Mark Swivel is taking his new show, Mum, to the Sydney Fringe in late September.
Local audiences have the opportunity to marvel at Mum at two special fundraising performances at the Drill Hall Theatre, Mullumbimby.
Mark Swivel describes his show, Mum, as a ‘funny, raw and tender story. A man in his 50s speaks to his mother, who died 20 years ago. He conjures her life, and reckons with her mysteries’.
The proceeds from Mum’s Drill Hall shows are going towards the production costs for The Chronicles of Eldershaw, which is at the Drill Hall from 10 to 20 October.
Friday night’s audience will have the opportunity to purchase beer from the local brewery Wandana for a discounted price of $6. Wandana is a supporter of the Drill Hall Theatre and Mum.
Mum plays Friday and Saturday at the Drill Hall Theatre at 7.30pm.
Tickets $20 – bookings: drillhalltheatre.org.au.
