The previous two screenings at Lido Cinema, were completely sold out. For those who didn't see it, missed out or want to see it again, book your seats now to avoid disappointment.
Sunday December 13th at 1.30pm is the second encore performance at Lido Cinema, 675 Glenferrie Rd, Hawthorn.
Live Multi Media Experience
Hear the stories of post war migrants via video, archival footage, photo montages, soundscapes and live music on piano.
With a post show speech and Q&A with director Simon Reich.
The show charts the “New Australian’s” time during the war and how that influenced their decision to find a new home. It then follows their travel by ships to the other side of the world, their arrival in a land they knew nothing about. Being housed in spartan migrant camps like Bonegilla and their eventual acceptance of Australia as their new home.
You’ll laugh. You’ll cry. But most of all you’ll be truly inspired by these gutsy pioneers who left everything behind and travelled to a country they knew nothing about.
