Sweetest Things

$5.40 – $15.00

Through interviews, emails, letters and legal documents a playwright pursues the truth left after a scandalous affair between a teacher and a schoolgirl. She was fifteen and he was forty. She was predatory and he was naive. He was predatory and she was foolish. The writer places herself in the thick of this toxic combination of vindictiveness, self-serving truths and emotional sleight of hand.

REVIEW: SWEETEST THINGS BY KATE RICE

MEREDITH MCLEAN, XS ENTERTAINMENT, 12 SEPTEMBER 2012

"Queasy. Thereâ€™s a word that describes perfectly how I felt during this performance. I should explain further; not queasy as in a sense of distaste. Queasy as in that sick kind of feeling where you know whatâ€™s going to happen but you canâ€™t look away. Itâ€™s like a car crash. Different people involved, some grave consequences and all the while you canâ€™t help but stare."
