Description A deeply researched, muscular work from Tommy Murphy (Mark Colvin’s Kidney, Holding the Man), Packer & Sons puts on stage the men who have loomed large over Sydney for nearly 100 years.

Plotted around the transitions of power from father to son over four generations, this is a play about power and what it does to the men who wield it.
