Set in an Australian mental institution, this humorous look at a first time directors struggle to bring "COSI FAN TUTTE" to the stage with a cast of mental patients who can nether sing nor speak Italian has appealed to audiences world wide. It has been described as "a comedy of the more inventive type" and the Sydney Morning Herald called it "a hilarious situation
comedy?(that) fairly glows in the dark".
Against the heady free-love era of 1971, COSI introduces us to a group who teach us some values the sane forget! Fidelity, humour and determination are all penned in this play-within-a play which has received rave reviews and is, by all accounts both heartwarming and funny.
