Ian W. Shaw will reveal the story of the leader of the Golden Gang, Frank Gardiner, mastermind behind the largest gold heist in Australian history. In tough country among a group of tough men, Gardiner was the toughest of them all. While he engaged in gunfights with police to evade capture, he was always courteous and could lay claim to never killing anyone, and not stealing from those who couldn't afford to be robbed.

TICKETS WILL OPEN FOR BOOKING ON 1 SEPTEMBER.
