About the Show:
Get ready for a quest to find answers to “Where have all the good ones gone? Where are all the gods? Where’s that streetwise Hercules to fight the rising odds? Because We Need a Hero or at least that’s what we’ve been told.”
From Hera to Hamlet, Wonder Woman to the Working Class Man, this show asks audiences the question: In a world connected yet divided, “Who’s Gonna Save Us?” Chart-topping anthems about bravery from artists as varied as The Beatles, Bowie and Bizet provide the soundtrack for our story as we search for what it means to be a hero. Exploring the musical archives, we discover not all heroes wear capes.
A variety of food options will be available to be pre-ordered through the ticket purchase and collected at the bar.

Do We Need Another Hero? is supported by the Queensland Government through Arts Queensland.
