Following its world premiere last year, Holding the Man became the most sought after theatre ticket in Sydney with three sold-out seasons, the 2007 NSW Premier's Literary Award and a nomination for the 2007 Helpmann and AWGIE awards for Best Play.
Already described as a modern classic of Australian theatre, Holding the Man is back for a strictly limited season at the intimate Belvoir St Theatre.
Adapted from the award-winning memoir of Timothy Conigrave, this is one of the great love stories. Tim and John met in high school in the mid-1970s. Their fifteen-year relationship weathers disapproval, separation, temptationand ultimately, death.
