ItÂ’s the start of the summer holidays, and people are off - in more ways than one.
(The Australian)

Away is a celebration of life and death, the neurosis of family and the great Australian holiday. ItÂ’s a gentle comedy, a reflection of life in the suburbs, survival and an affirmation of hope.

Away by Michael Gow is one of AustraliaÂ’s most successful plays. This production, directed by Adam Mitchell (The Brick and the Rose), brings this gentle comedy to life through the tenderness of characterisation, surreal staging and an emerging cast of actors.

Away still maintains its vitality and freshness as a contemporary Australian classic, its touching narrative and the transformation of itÂ’s characters, will make us think again about the next family trip.

Sublime!
(The Adelaide Review)
