A Simple Act of Kindness
by Ross Mueller
Directed by Blake Stringer
A Simple Act of Kindness takes a humorous look at family life and the realities of the modern property market. When Sophie and her fiancé Greg move in with Sophie's 'boomer' parents, the entire household is forced to adapt to new living arrangements as the cracks in their relationships begin to show. Set against the backdrop of a global pandemic, this play explores the compromises, ambitions, and quirks that come with family and shared dreams.
The characters find themselves juggling generational differences, shifting expectations, and the challenge of downsizing.
This sharply written comedy promises relatable situations, clever dialogue, and plenty of laughs. Audiences can expect a heartfelt exploration of what it means to support one another, even when it's not easy, in this timely and entertaining production.
Drinks served pre-show and during interval
In 2026 Saturday and Sunday matinees will commence at 2:00pm
Note Sunday performances commence at 2:00pm (not a 8:00pm performance as in brochure)
Book 3 or more plays for a discount over the year.
