A Stretch of the Imagination

Jack Hibberd's iconic Australian play brings Monk O'Neill to life—a lone figure in the outback, spinning yarns and conjuring memories in a virtuoso one-man performance. First staged in 1972, this darkly comic masterpiece explores isolation, storytelling, and the Australian psyche with wit and rawness. A landmark of Australian theatre that captures the voice of the bush like nothing else. Perfect for lovers of Australian drama, theatre students, and anyone who appreciates the power of a great monologue.
