A Day in the Death of Joe Egg

A Day in the Death of Joe Egg By Peter Nicholls Directed by Stephen Lee Class Act Theatre presents Peter Nichol’s dynamic black comedy. This play, set in 1967, deals with the problems faced by carers of severely disabled children. The issues are tellingly highlighted in this wonderfully fresh and confronting play. Often achingly funny, yet always with a bleak and bitter aftertaste, it is challenging and thought provoking. Would life for all of them by better by far if Joe were to die? Just what is gained by the daily struggle of her existence? Or can the bond between parent and child survive any adversity? Starring Peter Clark and Shirley Van Sanden. Supported by Claire Munday, Grant Watson and Angelique Malcolm and introducing Melissa Kiiveri as Joe. http://www.classact.com.au/joe_egg.html Performance Dates: June 5 to June 20 at 8pm (Tues-Sat - no Thurs performances) Matinee: Sat June 20 at 2pm Venue: Subiaco Arts Centre - Studio, 180 Hamersley Rd, Subiaco Cost: Tickets from $14.90 to $29 Bookings: BOCS: 9484 1133
