PRODUCTION INFORMATION

Helen and Frazer have worked it all out. Together. Supportive of one another, they’re taking all the steps towards great mutual success. So surely they can deal with dog-sitting Phoebe — even if they’d rather not.

We celebrate the 25th anniversary of this tightly wound, masterful play by one of Australia’s most acclaimed playwrights, Michael Gow. This modern Australian classic is both bitingly funny and quietly disturbing in its study of relationships in the modern world.

“Wilson’s excellent production … unmoors the play from its socio-realist roots and reveals its dark and bewildering heart.” ★★★★
- Time Out -

“This is a play that rewards precision and Mark Wilson is sure footed and sensitive to the play’s subtle changes of mood.”
– The Herald Sun -
