The Heath Ledger Theatre is bloody beautiful part of the State Theatre Centre of Western Australia. And that’s where I went to see Carol, the new festive-themed play by writer Andrea Gibbs (she was also the brains behind Barracking for the Umpire, which I reviewed back in 2022).

Presented by Black Swan State Theatre Company, Carol explores the highs and lows of the holidays, through the often-overlooked eyes of an older woman dealing with grief and facing homelessness.
