Life of Byron

Directed by Tony Nikolakopoulos

Actors: George Kapiniaris and Sophia Katos

Written by Tony Nikolakopoulos, Sally Faraday and George Kapiniaris

Following a hugely successful run in Melbourne and Sydney, The Life of Byron returns to the stage at The Greek Centre. A heartfelt and hilarious journey through memory, family and identity, as Byron faces his biggest decision yet about caring for his ageing mother.

As Byron picks through his old glory box full of memories of the women who shaped him, in particular the one who was the lynchpin holding everything together – his mum, Byron wonders, can he really send his mother away? Can he care for her himself?
