Flack cited cost of living pressures as one factor informing Belvoir's 2024 season.
Tiny Beautiful Things is coming to Belvoir from Queensland Theatre, where it opened in July, starring Mandy McElhinney as Cheryl Strayed: the ex-heroin addict turned author, who is perhaps best known for her New York Times bestseller Wild , which was further popularised by Reese Witherspoon's 2014 film adaptation.
Belvoir has been eyeing the show for some time: "We had been close to doing it in the past," says Flack. Flack, who saw Never Closer twice last year, says: "It was the most accomplished all-round piece of writing, directing, ensemble acting [and] staging that I had seen in a really, really long time."
