Description
Daniel Keene
returns to fortyfivedownstairs with
The Curtain
, written with his characteristically sharp ear for poetry in the dialogue of ordinary people.
Ada Munroe rents her two spare rooms to Leon and Francis, two single, aging men who seem to have come to the end of their road. The small country town where they live is slowly dying; local businesses are closing,  familiar faces disappearing. Their narrowing futures seem inescapable. But one night something unexpected happens that shifts how Ada sees her life. And now everything must change.
Directed by
Beng Oh
and featuring
Milijana Čančar
,
Gil Tucker
and
Paul Weingott
, this premiere production is a funny and fraught autumnal exploration of human foible and friendships.
Originally commissioned by Melbourne Theatre Company,
Daniel Keene’s
The Curtain
was included in the company’s 2012 Cybec Electric Readings program. Written by one of Australia’s most celebrated playwrights, it has remained to date, unproduced.
