Description
Angela Betzien‘s The Dark Room is a timely reflection on the conflict between what we ask of society and what it asks of us.
SYNOPSIS
A lonely motel somewhere. Deep in the night, six lost souls play out a small, distant tragedy of lovesickness and social breakdown – only it’s not the same night. The Dark Room is a beautifully formed thriller about the startling idea that, no matter how far apart we are in distance and time, we are all responsible for each other.
PRODUCTION HISTORY
The Dark Room premiered in 2009 with the HotBend Ensemble and the Sydney Theatre Company Push Program, with a subsequent season at Belvoir St, 2011.
