The Cardinal Rules

31 Oct 2024 to 2 Nov 2024

Merrigong Theatre Company’s MERRIGONGX presents Rose Maher’s THE CARDINAL RULESat the Illawarra Performing Arts Centre from the 31 October to 2 November.

With a dynamic ensemble cast led by actor, theatre-maker and clown Rose Maher, this inventive eulogy mashes heartfelt personal storytelling with visually stunning physical theatre, inspired by Rose’s Catholic upbringing in Canberra circa 1997.

The Cardinal Rules explores the beauty and complexity of a tight knit community, indoctrinated into silence when their voices were needed the most.
