SIGNS OF LIFE
A brother (Aaron Pedersen) and sister (Pauline Whyman) arrive at a farmhouse in the middle of the night. A recent widower called Georgie (Heather Mitchell) must decide whether or not she will help them. As with all of author Tim Winton’s work the language is beautiful and captivating and audiences are taken on a journey that will surprise, shock, delight and amuse. This funny yet heartbreaking tale is about both loss and hope, and healing through other people’s stories. Director Kate Cherry has crafted a poignant production with charming, evocative sets and outstanding performances.
