Packer & Sons Opens at Belvoir St

Congratulations to writer Tommy Murphy and director Eamon Flack on the opening of Packer & Sons at Belvoir St Theatre.

From humble beginnings, the myth of the Packer dynasty grows in step with their increasing influence, as each son feels the weight of time, of power. Newspapers, magazines, broadcast TV – what are they? How does each generation keep the empire one step ahead of the technological race, declare himself free of the shadow of his father and build a lasting legacy.

"Tycoon. Dynasty. Newspaperman. Mogul. They’re dated words in Australian discourse yet the story of the Packer family men, told in Tommy Murphy’s meticulously researched and generation-spanning new play, breathes life powerfully back into them." ★★★★ - The Guardian
