  • Tuesday 21 January 2025 from 5:45pm to 8:30pm
Cost

Concession: $25

If you're a young person between the ages of 15 and 24 and want exclusive access to some of Sydney's major arts events, then Playwave is for you.

Looking for a killer night out that won’t break the bank? We've teamed up with our friends at Belvoir St Theatre to give you the ultimate theatre hookup.

See the award-winning play Jacky up close, get the inside scoop from the creatives behind the show and meet and mingle with fellow Playwavers – all for $25!

Jacky’s a smart, enterprising young blackfella who has made a life for himself in Melbourne. He’s got the hang of the 21st century. Negotiating the gig economy? No worries. Slipping from office internships to cultural performances? No probs. Sex work? Pays the bills. But when Jacky’s unemployable little brother Keith rolls into town, Jacky’s various lives in the white world threaten to come undone.

Whip-smart and utterly of the here-and-now, this wink-of-the-eye, award-winning play of private life, work life, and that thing called ‘culture’ comes to Belvoir after an acclaimed premiere season in Melbourne.

It’s theatre, friends, and inspo all rolled into one epic night. Don’t sleep on this – grab your tix now!

Bookings are essential, and you must be a Playwave Member to attend. Not a Playwave member? Sign up here - it's free to join!
