In a bleak, remote town a small child is murdered. Suspicion falls on nine year old Lizzie. Her young mother, Angela must make the tortuous choice between ignoring her intuition or presenting her child to the police.

Are killers born or made?

What happens when ordinary people are placed in extraordinary circumstances?

Right, everybody get out your diaries and jot down this info -
August 28th to Sept 2nd. Recabites Hall. Wolf Lullaby.

Directed by myself ( Indira McDonald ) with one of the most amazing ensemble casts I have ever worked with -
AMANDA CREWES - from the illustrious Crewes family with a CV as long as your arm - (unless you have really, really long arms)
CRAIG WILLIAMS - Shakespeare in the Park, Black Swan and just about everything Barking Gecko has ever produced.
JAMIE CANT - Blue Room Board member and director of the highly acclaimed Cabaret at the Dean.
JENNY McCANN - from... well lets face it, who does'nt know Jenny and her impressive body of work?

Not too shabby Huh?
I thought I'd died and gone to heaven when all these talented people said "YES"
This formidable line-up coupled with Hilary Bell's provocative script promises to be a high point in the Perth Theatre calendar.( And I'm not just saying that because I'm directing, but because it's half way through rehearsals and I'm more excited than Big Kev!!!)

Don't miss this show
I repeat
Do not miss this show

Tickets are selling very quickly so you should reserve your seats by calling 9454 4620.
At $15 and $12conc tickets are well below the average Recabite/Blue Room prices because we wanted to make sure you did not miss this show!
Can't wait to see you all there

Well
My goodness
I do apologise Glynn
I guess that just as the Eastern states sometimes forget that WA exsists, we over here sometimes forget that you guys exsist. Sorry! That's just a by- product of living in the most isolated capital city in the world. I will not fall into that trap again as I believe that Grant is doing a fabulous job of closing the gap between east and west. Please do notify your friends and relatives in Bunbury as the cast and crew of this show have very fond contacts in that city as we have all taken part in the Bunbury Drama Festival for many years.( I myself participated in the festival for ten consecutive years both as an actor and director) I believe that the organisers of this particular event could give us a pretty good rap. If you are suggesting that your friends are prepared to travel up to Perth just to see this show then the very least I can do is organise a couple of comp tickets for them. Tell them to ring the number in the original posting and let me know who they are and when they would like to attend. Can't say fairer than that!
I am assuming that your response to my posting was born out of the frustration of wanting to see the show but not knowing where it was. Remember my name - Indira McDonald - Upon graduation from the WAAPA directing course I will be moving to Melbourne and will continue making theatre in the Eastern states. Be frustated no longer you can come to every show I produce if that is your desire.
On the subject of naked bottoms I have little to say other than having just spent two months directing and performing in Holland where theatre is not theatre unless you are baring your soul and baring your arse I can only suggest that - Dean , Jarrod get along to Wolf Lullaby to see what I learned in Amsterdam!
Cheers

PS
Thanks Leah, I hope that everything has been clarified now.
