"Is it possible for a person to be deeply in love with two completely different people, at the same time?"
A couple happily married to other partners, become lovers over a twelve month period, after a 'brief encounter' at a railway station, one April afternoon in 1935. Their deep love for each other - alienates them from their own families and surroundings, and they know that ultimately they must part- "but not yet - please not quite yet..." Determined to hurt no-one but themselves - Alec and Laura continue to see and love each other - knowing that the day will soon come when they will have to say 'goodbye', and live their previous life - without each other. Interwoven with their story are two other couples potential love stories - but perhaps their love will need no parting!
"Little Brother, Little Sister" by Unknown
The action takes place in a nuclear fallout shelter, in Brisbane, in the not too distant future.
Set in a nuclear fallout shelter, two innocent youngsters plus an elderly female cook, exist for 20 years - deprived of a normal life and upbringing. With the four walls with only a door between them and the outside 'real' world, these victims of circumstance survive. Not knowing anything of life or reality, the youngsters must depend upon Cook to supply them with their needs - and upbringing.
The question to be asked is, "could it really happen?"
"Speak only good of the Dead". by Daphne Derrick
The action of the play takes place in the sitting-room of Olivia's house, on an Autumn afternoon, in 1903.
How much should a mother love her son? For how long should she moarn his death? To what lengths should one go to protect that loved one's memory, and to what extent does that grief effect one's mind? When Olivia's idolized son - Ralph - is killed, her morbid grief worries both her sisters - Esme and Katherine. When a young woman appears on the scene claiming to be the late Ralphs' future wife - she is at first rejected - until she proclaims that she is carrying Ralphs' child!
