EXTRACT: You’re probably too young to remember what happened on the Stuart— Enough time’s passed and you start to think, ‘I’ve got a handle on this, I know what to do with this’, but it’s been fifteen years and still… Grief’s a slippery little sucker with a mind of its own. There’s no way to avoid it, that stretch of highway. Sometimes in life you get to hide from things you don’t wanna see, but there’s no hidin from that accident. Even when I fly over I know exactly when I’m passin that place, can feel it in my bones.

"It is the impassioned writing, the deeply committed ensemble of the actors to the story, and the brusquely managed tempo of the clearly envisioned production, that sweeps one along and permits one to celebrate, in the experience in the theatre space, with the rest of audience, an achievement of pertinence, for today, in Sydney's theatre going calendar in 2014."
