Where beer flows, grudges brew.
We finish 2026 with the South Australian premiere of Pinero’s comedy The Thunderbolt. A wealthy brewer dies without a will, and his very respectable family behaves appallingly. Greed, snobbery, and a house full of relatives at war over teacups and bank balances.
The Thunderbolt ignites when a wealthy bachelor and owner of a brewery dies—without a will—and his estranged, bickering siblings scramble for a fortune they believe is theirs. But when a secret daughter steps forward, the gloves come off. Arthur Wing Pinero’s razor-sharp comedy crackles with inheritance intrigue, family feuds, and moral reckonings. A biting, brilliant Edwardian satire that still hits home today. Don’t miss this deliciously dramatic battle of bloodlines and bank balances!
The Thunderbolt is directed by Libby Drake and features an outstanding cast including Joshua Coldwell, Jessica Corrie, Anne Doherty, Michael Eustice, Akira Hockley Miric, Elisha Johnson, Steve Marvanek, Annie Matsouliadis, Katie Packer, Jai Pearce, Leighton Vogt, Malcolm Walton, and Tim Williams.
