Arts and Culture
It's great to see more arts and cultural activities returning, and we're pleased to share that Lebanese-Australian James El Azzi's 'SON OF BYBLOS' is being presented at the Belvoir Theatre.

SON OF BYBLOS
4 MAY - 21 MAY


Adam has everything under control. As each day passes and he knows what to expect: Casual sex when he wants it, his traditional Lebanese parents wrapped around his finger and the only person he can be his true self with, his cousin Claire, always right by his side. He has a grip on everything and is content.

Until Claire suddenly announces her engagement to a man abroad in Lebanon.

With this one decision their truce is shaken, and little by little Adam begins to lose his grip. Sex isn’t getting him high anymore and his parents start asking questions he hasn’t prepared answers to. His private world and cultural expectations finally clash and the lies that used to keep his life together won’t work for him any longer.
