In today’s world, power, wealth, and self-interest often dominate. But what happens when the underdog resists?
The Great Divide by David Williamson explores this in a modern Australian town threatened by a wealthy developer, where local Penny Poulter leads the fightback—at a personal cost. Williamson, a leading playwright, reflects society’s flaws through this story of inequality, greed, and human weakness.
Presented by Yackandandah Theatre Company, this timely production highlights the growing divide between those who have and those who don’t, and the courage it takes to stand against it.

The Spooky Men’s Chorale is a vast, rumbling, steam-powered and black-clad behemoth, seemingly accidentally capable of rendering audiences moist eyed with mute appreciation or haplessly gurgling with merriment.
