Daphne
A surreal and moving new work about the stories we tell ourselves, and the moments we're forced to choose between difficult truths and comfortable illusions.

Directed by Sarah Hughes and starring Jasmine Batchelor in the titular role, get your tickets now and be one of the first to see this exciting new work
What's it about?
Normally people move from the middle of nowhere to the city, however, for Daphne and her girlfriend Winona, it's the other way around. They move to a house in the middle of the woods, but not everything is as it seems. Daphne's days take a surreal turn, and her grasp on reality is called into question as her life gets even stranger.
