As his body hit the water, few heard the impact. But the ripple effect of the murderous act defied natural law and swelled to seismic scale.
It’s half a century since the infamous drowning of Dr George Ian Ogilvie Duncan; a moment in time that led South Australia to decriminalise homosexuality.
Watershed is a ravishing new operatic work by some of Australia’s most acclaimed creative talents: playwright Alana Valentine, author Christos Tsiolkas and composer Joseph Twist. Australian theatre and opera legend Neil Armfield’s production is as deeply felt as it is thrillingly physical.
See why Watershed was met with five-star reviews, a sold-out premiere season, and rapturous standing ovations at every performance.
