9 January 2010 – 30 January 2010 The 2010 Sydney Festival program has landed, marked by exceptional dance, theatre, music and a big round yellow balloon!
Lindy Hume's first of three Festivals as Artistic Director, is the most expansive to date. The Festival includes the highly anticipated return of some Festival friends, a continued emphasis on free events and the introduction of a wide range of artists making their Sydney debuts.
For the three weeks this January, the Festival offers a dizzying array of creative talent, including German director Thomas Ostermeier with his radical retake on Hamlet; two-time Oscar-winner A.R. Rahman presenting a huge free concert in Parramatta Park, Ireland's Fabulous Beast's macabre and beautiful Giselle; the hottest director on London's West End, Rupert Goold, with his Six Characters in Search of an Author starring Ian McDiarmid and Catherine McCormack, and American director Peter Sellars with his Stravinsky double bill, Oedipus Rex & Symphony of Psalms with Sydney Symphony, Sydney Philharmonia Choirs and a stellar line-up of soloists.
This and so much more makes for a Sydney Festival celebration that is not to be missed. Make sure you're in town this summer!
