Supported by our Sunday Production Patron’s Andrew Sisson AO and Tracey Sisson, Joanna Baevski, Glenda and Greg Lewin AM, Kerry Gardner AM and Andrew Myer AM, Virginia Lovett and Rose Hiscock, Orcadia Foundation, Anonymous (1). Sunday was commissioned by Melbourne Theatre Company with the support of the Joan and Peter Clemenger Trust. Restart Investment to Sustain and Expand (RISE) Fund – an Australian Government initiative Directed by Sarah Goodes ( The Sound Inside) and also featuring Matt Day ( North by Northwest), Josh McConville ( Elvis), Ratidzo Mambo ( The Heartbreak Choir) and Joshua Tighe, Sunday is an unforgettable story of a bold and complex woman and the price she paid for living and loving on her own terms as a woman in mid-20th century Australia. And in the aftermath, Australian art will never look the same.Īward-winning playwright Anthony Weigh ( 2,000 Feet Away) creates a fantasy around this Melbourne icon that captures her passionate and unconventional spirit. When struggling artist Sidney Nolan arrives at Heide, the idyllic utopia Sunday is creating with her beloved husband John Reed on the outskirts of 1940s Melbourne, what ensues will haunt all three to their dying days. Outspoken, uninhibited, adventurous, she has a laser eye for the new – in life and in art. Starring Nikki Shiels ( Girls & Boys, The Picture of Dorian Gray), this world premiere Melbourne Theatre Company commission is an audacious fantasy inspired by the stories and myths that surround Heide Museum of Modern Art founder Sunday Reed – the muse and mentor to a circle of artists including Sidney Nolan, Albert Tucker and Joy Hester.
