L.A.'s Australian Theatre Company, set to produce two Australian plays at the Matrix Theatre this June, has launched a crowdfunding campaign at generosity.com.
The company seeks to raise $65,000 to mount the U.S. premieres of Ruben Guthrie by Brendan Cowell and Speaking in Tongues by Andrew Bovell. The two plays, each of which inspired well-known Australian films, would run in repertory as a "double feature." Both plays received staged readings last year as part of ATC's "Stage to Screen" reading series.
Dedicated to telling great Australian stories and sharing the best of Australian culture with American audiences, ATC burst onto the scene in 2014 with their wildly successful Los Angeles premiere of the Australian love story, Holding the Man ("Dazzling virtuosity... a stunningly sensitive, athletic production" - Arts In LA).
