“That’s a delicious bloody prize for the beatings”
In a small town with a big sky, a shot rings out and nobody hears.
In a small town with a big sky, a shot rings out and everyone knows why.
In a small town with a big sky, a shot rings out and a man gets his comeuppance.
Daring, grotesque, and darkly funny, The Bleeding Tree is the story of three women determined to survive – but what if killing violent daddy numbskull is only the beginning of the story? In this intimate drama of epic proportions, acclaimed Australian playwright Angus Cerini explores community, complicity and what it means to look the other way.
The Bleeding Tree premiered in Sydney in 2015, where it won the Griffin Award, the Helpmann Award for Best Play and the David Williamson Prize for Excellence in Writing for Australian Theatre. This UK premiere production is directed by Sophie Drake (Patriots, West End and Broadway) and produced by Jessie Anand Productions (This Might Not Be It, Bush Theatre).
