Hostage / Bleach / Burn
Monday 30 July, 2007 - Saturday 4 August, 2007 : 6pm Hostage: In a dark room in a distant, undisclosed country, a man held hostage by militants searches for absolution in each link in the chain of events that lead to his captivity. Bleach: In another room, in a comfortable, westernised country, a young woman who fancies herself a free spirit discovers the real nature of the walls that surround her. Burn: Deep in the heart of Montreal, a man has to come to face with the fact his whole life was based on a lie. These 3 one person shows by Heather Taylor spin tales of three people in different times and places trapped in their lives, trying to find out how they got there and where they can go. |

Two soldiers vie for glory during a bloody siege, a new gay couple fail tragically to maintain the thrill of falling in love and a woman desperately writes homoerotic romances in her office. Subversive in form and uncompromising in content, this play evokes the danger when the actual and the fantasised blur. Directed by AC Wilson. Actors include: Lorraine Coady, Rob Lockhart, Adam McConville, Jamie Griffiths, and Matthew Bulgo |
