Sydney Theatre Company and Griffin Theatre Company present
Like a Fishbone
By Anthony Weigh

A single act of fury has left a small rural community in shock.

Months later, in an office many miles away, an architect prepares to present her plans for the memorial she has created in their honour. The unannounced arrival of a visitor interrupts proceedings; a grieving mother who wants to share a story of hope and faith so that her community can begin to live again.

Marta Dusseldorp and Anita Hegh play two extraordinary women waging a personal battle between religious faith and humanism, grief and commemoration – a battle that will change both of their lives irrevocably.

Enthralling and intensely moving, Like a Fishbone explores some of the most devastating aspects of life in the 21st century: how to make sense of senseless violence, how to remember those we have lost, and how to move on.

As part of Next Stage, Sydney Theatre Company and Griffin Theatre Company present the Australian premiere production of this extraordinary new play from acclaimed playwright Anthony Weigh (2000 Feet Away).
