Pomona
Written By: Alistair McDowall
Creative Team: Directed by Thomas Midena
What darkness lurks at the heart of the city?
Ollie is searching for her sister, and all roads lead to Pomona: an abandoned concrete island at the heart of the city. But as others have learned the hard way, getting involved can cost you everything. Perhaps to survive, it’s better to ignore the truth.
Pomona is a dark, intense and curious one act play about living in the modern world. It unfolds like a puzzle, flirts with the fantastical, and twists like a nightmare.
The play was first performed in London in 2014. This will be its South Australian premiere.
