Friday 15 August
We’re so excited to team up with our friends at Geelong Arts Centre to give our library members the chance to win tickets to the much-anticipated stage adaptation of Melina Marchetta’s iconic coming-of-age novel, Looking for Alibrandi.
Starring Chanella Macri as Josie Alibrandi, alongside a talented ensemble cast, this production delivers all the heart, humour, and raw emotion of the original film and novel, plus plenty of live passata-making on stage. The production is on stage from 20-23 August. Find out all about the show by visiting the Geelong Arts Centre website. (Recommended for ages 14+).
From today until 5pm Monday 18 August, library members can enter to win a double pass to see Looking for Alibrandi live on stage.
