Jacky
23 Oct - 08 Nov
Subiaco Arts Centre
Family, culture, survival...and the gamble of balancing it all.
Jacky
Presented by Black Swan State Theatre Company & Yirra Yaakin Theatre Company
FAMILY, CULTURE, SURVIVAL...AND THE GAMBLE OF BALANCING IT ALL
Jacky is a smart, enterprising young Aboriginal man making a life for himself in the city.
He’s skilfully navigating the gig economy, skipping neatly from office internships to cultural performances to sex work. But when his little brother Keith shows up unannounced, Jacky’s carefully compartmentalised lives are thrown into chaos.
Sharp, funny and unflinching, Jacky is a biting new play about family, work, culture and the compromises we make to survive. With wit, grit and a wicked sense of humour, Declan Furber Gillick shines a light on the cost of navigating identity, ambition and connection in contemporary Australia.
This bold new co-production brings two of WA’s leading theatre companies together to deliver one of the most exciting new Australian plays of recent years. A work that is as confronting as it is hilarious, as personal as it is political.
