In The lion in Winter, King Henry II throws a Christmas feast for the newly crowned King of France. Also in attendance for the holiday celebrations are Henry’s three plotting sons, each eager to take the throne, and Henry’s manipulative wife Eleanor of Aquitaine, newly released from house arrest (after raising an army against Henry). Even though they need to appear a happy family for the King of France, this doesn’t stop each Plantagenet from secretly plotting to take the others down. While the three sons backstab and squabble to take their place in history, Eleanor and Henry use their offspring as pawns against each other in a dangerous game of cat and mouse. Told in “marvelously articulate language, with humor that bristles and burns (“Los Angeles Times”)”, The Lion in Winter is a play that transcends the historical genre to become a bitingly hilarious family drama.

The Rotary Club of Woolloongabba, who initiated the development of the park, gift the peace pole, adding to amenity and interest for the community. A sausage sizzle and drinks will be available from 10am.
A Peace Pole is an internationally-recognized symbol of the hopes and dreams of humankind for peace on earth. Each pole says May Peace Prevail on Earth in different languages on multiple sides. Globally, there are >250,000 Peace Poles – a presence in every country. Planting a Peace Pole is a way of bringing people together to inspire, awaken and uplift the human consciousness. Peace Poles remind us to think, speak and act in the spirit of peace and harmony. As part of Rotary’s centenary celebrations, Rotarians are placing Peace Poles in parks, schools, public and private properties throughout Australia – aiming for more than 100.
The Woolloongabba Peace Pole has eight (8 ), sides with the languages representing the First People of the area and the later multi-national and -cultural settlers. Contact: RC Woolloongabba E: gabbarotary@gmail.com M: 0415 394 910
