Shrine by Tim Winton

Black Swan State Theatre Company presents Shrine by Tim Winton World Premiere 31 August – 15 September 2013 In the rocky headlands of the South Coast of Western Australia, a privileged young man, Jack, has been killed driving friends back to Perth from his parents’ beach house, leaving in his wake a wreck of a father, a shadow of a mother, and the promise of a love affair that never quite happened. A year later, Jack’s father Adam meets the small town girl, June, who shared a strange and life changing night with Jack hours before he died. Domestic heartbreak transcends into mythology in a landscape inhabited by ghosts.
