03 May 2011 GANESH VERSUS THE THIRD REICH, World Premiere Season Announced

Back to Back Theatre is thrilled to announce the World Premiere of GANESH VERSUS THE THIRD REICH presented by Malthouse Theatre and Melbourne Festival.

29 SEPTEMBER – 9 OCTOBER 2011
MERLYN THEATRE, THE MALTHOUSE – MELBOURNE

This is the epic journey of an elephant headed Hindu god who seeks to go one-on-one with Hitler. As our hero Ganesh cuts a swathe through Germany we embark on a wildly inventive ride through history, where sacred icons and rituals become weapons of theatrical production.

‘'The company’s Director, Bruce Gladwin, is widely admired as a theatrical genius and the show’s long development is obvious in the finished product,’‘ Marion Potts, Artistic Director Malthouse Theatre
