About the show
The knife, the knife! Damn the knife, damn all knives, damn the devil who created knives.”
Tommy Murphy (Holding the Man, Packer and Sons) brings his trademark wit and insight to his stunning version of Lorca’s tragedy of a woman loved by two men. Infused with the chaos of our contemporary moment, this is a bold vision of lost lovers, aggrieved elders and untethered tribal vengeance.
Director Dino Dimitriadis (Overflow, Cleansed) brings this visceral world to life, centring the tender and the beautiful in a world where sex, duty, lust and lineage collide.
This production may contain strong language, adult themes, theatrical haze and strobe lighting.
