Sydney Theatre Company presents
FURY
A new play by Joanna Murray-Smith
Joanna Murray-Smith returns to Sydney Theatre Company with this
powerful new work.
Welcome to the charming inner city life of Alice (Sarah Peirse)
and Patrick (Robert Menzies), successful professionals who after
twenty-odd years of marriage still adore each other.
They enjoy their status in the intelligentsia, their home,
literary success and, most importantly, bringing up their son Joe
together. When Joe is accused of an inflammatory act, secrets from
Alice's past emerge and suddenly the safe, politically-correct
world they've built around themselves blows apart.
In this brilliant play of ideas Murray-Smith deftly examines
generational differences, wrong versus right, and the difference
between protest and terrorism. All this with the lightness of touch
and dexterity of dialogue that has made her one of Australia's
most performed playwrights, both at home and overseas.
Fury is a play about the people who live next door to
you: their concerns, their ideologies and, most poignantly, their
yearning for redemption.
Warning! Coarse language.
This production is supported by the STC Chairman's
Council.
