Description

Set in a Queenslander in Queensland, Prospect Terrace by Angela Murphy is a funny, bitter, and quirky take on the dynamics of a dysfunctional family. It explores the powerful dynamics that confront us when parents age, inheritances dangle, and the family home needs to be sold.

Pepper’s once-normal life is falling apart. Her fractious father, Jack, has taken nasty to a new level, her spoilt younger sister, Bunny, dishes out unwanted social-worker advice, and her far-away floundering brother, Rob, has continued his romance with the bottle. To top it off, her estranged teenage daughter, Megan, has publicly blanked her. When 80-year-old Jack ends up in hospital, decisions need to be made about his future and the much-loved family home on Prospect Terrace.

We watch as the family grapples with the past, as they rediscover forgotten truths, hidden treasures, and lost love.

PRODUCTION HISTORY: Prospect Terrace was first produced at the Cairns Preforming Arts Centre, Cairns, on Friday November 20, 2020.
