Taking Liberty presented by Theatre 180

Directed by Stuart Halusz. Assistant Director Craig Williams. Featuring Stuart Halusz, Luke Hewitt and Jarryd Dobson.
THEATRE 180, in collaboration with WA Museum, presents one of the greatest moments in Australian sporting history – the defeat of Liberty by Australia II in the 1983 America’s Cup.
In an epic, against-the-odds finish to a best-of-seven race, Skipper John Bertrand led his crew to turn the tide from a 3-1 deficit in race five and claim victory in a nail-biting decider, one of the biggest comebacks in sporting history.
Combining the excitement of live theatre against a cinematic backdrop, Taking Liberty by Ingle Knight celebrates the moment in time which defined a nation and gave international prominence to our cultural identity and fighting spirit, ending America’s 132-year dominance of the sport in what became known as the Race of the Century.
Suitable for ages 10+
