ABOUT THE SHOW:

When the city is built on lies, someone has to bring the house down.​

 

Corporate landlord Jordan Jamieson sits at the top of his empire. He is rich, ruthless and riding high alongside his whip smart executive assistant and the mayor in his back pocket. It's not long before a fearless prosecutor starts asking questions and we see cracks beginning to form and Jordan's power starting to crumble.

​

From award-winning playwright Caleigh Crow, and composers Sacha Crow and Gus Rendell, Hucksterland is a new musical pulsing with humour, heart and rebellion.

​

It’s loud. It’s fearless. And when the music stops, not everyone makes it out alive.

​

Content warnings: Course language, examples of homophobia, misogyny, ableism, portrayal of sexual acts, heavy drinking, and heavy drug use.

 

Accessibility considerations: bright & flashing lights & loud punk music
