Griffin Theatre Company:
The Elocution of Benjamin Franklin

A landmark work of Australian theatre returns to the stage where it first sprang to inglorious life.  

steve j. spears’s The Elocution of Benjamin Franklin scandalised and mesmerised in equal measure when it premiered in 1976—touring across the world and collecting awards everywhere it ventured. Now, on its 50th anniversary, Simon Burke takes on the towering role that Gordon Chater made infamous.
