As We Forgive: Three Morality Plays for an Amoral Age is a compelling examination of contemporary morality. Theatrical tour-de-force Robert Jarman plays three different characters with absorbing passion accompanied on stage by a lone cellist.
The first play focuses on an elderly man’s response to a brutal home invasion. He doesn’t take it lying down. The second story examines the life of a middle-aged man who looks back over the course of his life with surprising response. The third tale shows how an ordinary man grapples with forgiveness.
Tim Holloway is a multi-award winning Tasmanian playwright considered one of the hottest commodities in the writing world. He delves deep into the human condition focusing on what he considers to be the things that really matter. With exceptional Director and Dramaturge, Julian Meyrick at the helm, this series of short plays will have audiences thinking long after the final curtain.
