By Philip Ridley Directed by Garry Thomas Season: 14 - 23 June 2018 Cast: Steven - George Sharman Barry - Josiah Morgan Debbie - Nikki Bleyendaal Liz - Marilyn Ollett A sharp, complex play about two brothers and the grim hold that their memories have on them. Barry is an artist who works for his older brother Stephen; Stephen is a successful business man with a beautiful wife and house, but absolutely no interest in his wife’s pregnancy. A series of flashback monologues describe the brothers’ father and his suicide, and slowly uncover the depths of their grief and trauma. The characters of the play are haunted by the ghosts of lies that the family has told to keep going and by the pain they have not been able to bury. NOTE: Contains adult themes and strong/mature language. |
