Zeal Theatre Collection: Three plays

"The Stones" is based on a true story of two boys charged with manslaughter after throwing rocks from a freeway overpass and killing a motorist. This internationally renowned play was created in 1996 and has been performed world-wide including: the National Theatre London; New Victory Theatre, New York; De Krakeling, Amsterdam; and a cowshed in Horn-Zaingrub, Austria. "Taboo", commissioned by the Sydney Theatre Company deals with date rape, internet dating, and the ripple effects of sexual assault. "Burnt", set in the fictitious town of Gilpendry, was born out of the true stories of people from regional Australia struggling with prolonged drought, and in particular how the stresses and strains of continued drought impacts on families and young people.
