Holding The Man

Holding the Man is based on the award winning book by Tim Conigrave and is adapted for the stage by playwright Tommy Murphy.  This is an hilariously funny, tender and moving play which follows the remarkable true life love story of Tim Conigrave and John Caleo and speaks across generations, sexual preferences and culture.

Teenage love rarely runs a smooth course, but add a gay boy, and all-male school, Melbourne in the 1970s, a crush on the football team captain and this love could never be smooth!  Despite all this the pair survive 15 years of all that can be thrown at them until the only problem that love can’t solve turns up to part them.
