Event

Harold Holt: The Man, The Myth, The Pool

Federation Uni Ballarat - Post Office Box Theatre

Public historian and comedian James Ward has done what no one else would dare: build a replica of the Harold Holt Swim Centre and create an entire comedy show around it. The result is a hysterical dive into one of Australia's most bizarre historical ironies. This show is a part of Fringe Encore: Ballarat.
