Seventeen

What did it feel like when you were seventeen? What’s it like to be seventeen now? Joyful and profound, Matthew Whittet’s Seventeen tells the story of a group of high school students, experiencing something we all remember well, the last day of school – for ever.
But in a revelatory theatrical twist, all roles are performed by older actors who were seventeen many years ago, bringing the experience of age to the dreams of hopeful youths.

Singular Voices: Andy Shauf
City Recital Hall, 8pm, Dec 11
Andy Shauf returns to Sydney in December for a very special solo show. Hailed as “a gifted storyteller” (NPR Music), Shauf writes albums that unfold like short fiction, full of colourful characters, fine details and a rich emotional depth. With his latest album, Norm, however, Shauf has slyly deconstructed and reshaped the style for which he’s been celebrated, elevating his songwriting with intricate layers and perspectives, challenging himself to find a new direction. Under the guise of an intoxicating collection of jazz-inflected romantic ballads, his storytelling has become decidedly more oblique, hinting at ominous situations and dark motivations.
