Tales of Tocal was conceived as an innovative way for visitors to experience the heritage site of Tocal Homestead and find out some of the stories of the characters of the past.


This year, the performance is based on a true story of a mysterious finding of a body in the creek beyond Tocal Homestead in 1874. Speculation was rife at that time and the show draws on the excitement caused at Tocal and in the district by this discovery and subsequent events. The audience will stroll through the heritage site at twilight coming upon various scenes from the past staged in the rooms, barns, gardens and yards.


The show is directed by Andrew Coates of Upstage Theatre and has a cast of 42 actors drawn from Upstage Youth Theatre and the local community.
