More Information:
After playing at the Roundhouse Theatre in Kelvin Grove in 2007, Walking By Apple Tree Creek will embark on a five week national tour featuring the original cast Carol Burns and Bob Newman.

"Join two grey nomads, Del (Carol Burns) and Stan (Bob Newman) on their great Australian dream of selling the house, buying a mobile home and hitting the road. On the road they've faced the Big Pumpkin in Beaudesert, the Big Prawn in Ballina, the Big Chicken in Moonbi, the Big Snake in Ayr, the Big Beer Bottle and Big Shell in Tewantin, and the Big Pineapples in Gympie and Nambour. Not to mention the Big Bull in Rockhampton and the Big Avocado in Tweed Heads. Now they must face the big things in their own lives, their past and their future." - Empire Theatre

"Director Jean-Marc Russ finds depth in these characters and presents a sad and gentle story about 'remembering' that is quite lovely. It is Newman, however, as the debilitated and difficult husband, who steals the show. His subtle physical performance is outstanding." - The Australian
