by Glyn Maxwell

Directed by Danny Swanson

Friday 29th November – Saturday 7th December 1996 in the Auditorium

Dawn breaks on a deserted roadside — on a broken-down sports car, a discarded ballgown, a set of handcuffs and a dead young man in a dinner jacket. Out of the shadows loom three figures: a lovesick biker, a girl alleging rape and the somewhat indignant ghost of the victim.

Whom do you believe, when each of the three claims to be the hero of this dreadful incident?

And what did the paper-boy think he saw?

In this world premiere poet Glyn Maxwell retells a classic mystery of love and envy, sex and fear, and the elusive nature of truth itself.
