By Andrew Bovell
Directed by Carla Moore
Exclusively licensed by HLA Management Pty Ltd

One year in the life of an Australian family as they discover the sweet pain of finding out the truth about each other and themselves. Bob and Fran Price have been married for 30 years, brought up four children and kept their sense of humour. Their eldest is married with children of her own, the boys are successfully pursuing careers and their youngest has just left home to backpack around Europe for a year. It should be time to stop and smell Bob’s precious roses. But just when things should be slowing down, it becomes clear that a parent’s work is never really complete. Funny and poignant, Things I Know to be True is a beautifully crafted play from award winning Australian playwright Andrew Bovell.

Doubt, A Parable

By John Patrick Shanley
Directed by Carla Moore
By arrangement with Creative Artists Agency

Where do you draw the line between belief and suspicion? Between scandal and moral certainty. And when does the battle for truth turn into a witch hunt? Set in the Bronx New York in 1964, Sister Aloysius, a school principal and stern Catholic nun, takes matters into her own hands when she suspects the young Father Flynn of improper relations with one of the male students. An accusation sets the stage for a powerful clash of authority, tradition, responsibility and faith. A relevant and resonating play, winner of the 2005 Pulitzer Prize for Drama, four Tony Awards and the New York Drama Critics’ Circle for Best Play.
