“BRILLIANT, BLACK AND BITING HUMOUR” Sydney Morning Herald
Patricia Highsmith, the famous, and eccentric, author of The Talented Mr Ripley, and Carol is living in seclusion in Switzerland with just her books and antique guns for company. When she is visited by an eager and naive editor from her publishing house, who has been tasked with convincing her to write one last Ripley, a thrilling game begins.
But who is the hunter, and who is the prey?
From the company that brought you the critically acclaimed Playhouse Creatures, comes this brilliant production of Joanna Murray Smith’s taut psychological thriller. Starring Canberra’s own Karen Vickery (Winner Best Actress in a Leading Role in the 2014 Canberra Area Theatre Awards) and Lachlan Ruffy (Channel 9’s Quartermaine) it’s a rollercoaster ride that will take you right to the edge…
“Murray-Smith’s psychological thriller is her best yet.” Sydney Morning Herald
