New Theatre presents
The Park

17 Jan 2022 to 22 Jan 2022

“I like this place. It scares me as well. Weird energy.”

A small group of characters traverse a park, accosted by both the fantastical and the earthly. What terrors are brutally real, and what are imagined? And how do they deal with the consequences of their journeys as narrative threads reveal themselves to be increasingly intertwined?

In our collective psyches, parks are places of fun and relaxation during the day but take on darker, more threatening aspects at night. The benign becomes sinister as the sun goes down.

Etched in magic realism, this new Australian play combines humour and horror to explore themes of social anxiety, physical and psychological violence, and infidelity.

Shortlisted for The Silver Gull Play Award 2020.

World premiere, produced by New Theatre
