Sydney premiere!

Our House contains some mature themes. The production makes brief use of strobe lighting and smoke machine special effects.

Please note that for Our House ticket prices are $35/$30. There is a slight restriction of view during two brief scenes from upstairs seating.

The performance runs for two hours 15 minutes with a 20 minute interval.

What happens if you take a script by one of Britain's leading playwrights, Tim Firth, and combine it with the best songs of British super-group Madness? You get the Olivier Award winning musical Our House! A gripping, moving, and very funny story about a 16 year old boy facing the choice of two paths in life and all their ramifications, it features songs such as 'It Must Be Love', 'Baggy Trousers', 'Wings of a Dove', and of course 'Our House'. Be in quick for tickets to this Sydney premiere!
