Don’t be the Odd Man Out on this one

Direct from a World Premiere, sell-out season at the Ensemble Theatre in Sydney, Noosa Long Weekend, Australia’s foremost regional Community Arts and Cultural Festival proudly presents Odd Man Out for four ‘only’ exclusive fund-raiser performances, taking place at The J on March 23, 24 and 25.
These performances of Odd Man Out will honour David Williamson AO, the most produced playwright in the history of Australia (among his many other accolades across literature, theatre, film and television).
David is no stranger to Noosa, in fact he and wife Kristin are synonymous with Noosa, having lived locally for many years and remain founding Patrons of the Noosa Long Weekend Festival.
Sixteen years ago a local group of creative visionaries including David and Kristin had the idea to blend their passions and considerable talents with the beautiful environment that is Noosa and the first festival took place.
Over the years this magical peninsula that lends itself perfectly to an intimate and relaxed festival atmosphere has previewed and produced many a Williamson play hosting some of the best Australian and international talent and entertained literally tens of thousands of local patrons and guests.
“Odd Man Out has delighted audiences in Sydney and we are looking forward to presenting the Queensland Premiere performances here in Noosa! And thrilled to be hosting such a stellar cast led by Justin Stewart Cotta and Lisa Gormley. With only four possible performances in Noosa, I urge everyone to book sooner than later because Williamson plays always sell out, not just here but everywhere! The difference is that in Noosa you experience a more intimate setting and atmosphere,” said Ian Mackellar, Noosa Long Weekend Festival Director.
Noosa Long Weekend honours David Williamson OA and our loyal supporters and audiences by offering a strictly limited number of exclusive premium tickets, to include A Reserve seating, together with an after performance supper (including all food and beverage) with special guests, playwright David Williamson OA and the Sydney cast of Odd Man Out. This is a great opportunity to get up close and personal with our stars.
David Williamson plays historically sell out quickly and this is a limited season of four performances only.
There are three easy ways for you to secure your festival event tickets: online at www.noosalongweekend.com, phone The J Noosa on 5329 6560 or at The J Theatre, Noosa on Mon-Fri 9am-5pm.
