AUSTRALIAN PREMIERE!
“I want to tell you a story. And it’s true. That’s what makes it a good f**king story, right, ’cause all the best stories are true.”
Fleet Street. 1969. The Sun rises.
James Graham’s red-topped play leads with the birth of England’s most influential newspaper when a young and rebellious Rupert Murdoch asked the impossible and launched its first editor’s quest, against all odds, to give the people what they want.
Ink centers around an unlikely match-up of David and Goliath proportions between Murdoch’s newly purchased The Sun and the best selling newspaper in the world, The Mirror. Prior to purchase, The Sun was a struggling, left leaning Broadsheet destined for failure. Enter an ambitious Rupert Murdoch, ready to disrupt Fleet Street, rogue editor Larry Lamb and an unlikely team of underdog reporters and you’ve got a story good enough for the front page.
This ensemble comedy is jam-packed with both hilarious and gripping dramatic moments that tell one hell of a story.
It may even have you rooting for Australia’s own Media Mogul himself.
