Rope
As winter settles across Sydney, Chester Productions join forces with the Tamarama Rock Surfers and invite you to test your nerves with a deliciously disturbing night at the Bondi Pavilion Theatre. Gird your loins for critically acclaimed director Iain Sinclair’s fierce new production of Patrick Hamilton’s classic noir thriller ROPE.
Written in 1929, ROPE is a psychological thriller in which two privileged young men commit the “perfect” murder. Quoting Nietzsche, they cold-bloodedly murder a fellow undergraduate and, then, in a macabre twist, invite the boy’s father, aunt and three friends to dine off the chest that contains his corpse.
So, get your vintage dark out for a challenging night of parlour room horror. Think classic noir, think pencil suits, think murderous sociopaths with great style and a bulge in their trousers. In short – old school psychological horror wound as tight as Dick’s hatband!
Starring:
Josh Quong Tart (Killer Joe, Our Town, Home & Away), Anthony Gee (Capture the Flag), Anthony Gooley (S-27, Packed to the Rafters), Sarah Snook (S-27, Sisters of War) Gig Clarke (The Grenade MTC, Rescue: Special OPS), Elaine Hudson (A Streetcar Named Desire STC, Rake) ,Bob Baines (Laid, Home & Away), Elaine Hudson (Streetcar named Desire) and Peter Eyers.
