MURRAY’S DIARY

If you missed last years production of Murray’s Diary, or if you would like to experience it again, here is a very limited opportunity in the lead up to ANZAC Day. This special presentation will be a simplified version of the sold out 2025 production, with the same cast and team that engaged and enthralled audiences.

A powerful and intimate retelling of the First World War story of Kalgoorlie’s Lt James Murray Aitken and his family. James Murray Aitken joined the 11th Battalion, AIF, in August 1914. One of the first ashore at Gallipoli, Murray, as his family called him, corresponded constantly with his mother back in Kalgoorlie, keeping in touch with news from home, as well as detailing his experiences of war. Murray’s letters and diary provide the basis for a compelling and unique Anzac story brought to you by Highlands Theatre Group.
