The Festival is pleased to premiere, Palliative Care, the latest work by emerging Dunedin playwright Emily Duncan, runner–up in the Young New Zealand Playwrights, Competition with her first play Lips in 1999.
Palliative Care, is set in Alexandra where a family gathering becomes a catalyst of raw emotions that see three generations of family baggage uncovered. Ron Pederson is a World War II veteran and widower who is estranged from his adult daughter. His unconventional relationship with his nurse feeds the familial tensions which underpin the development of the play.
Palliative Care is a powerful drama that weaves love, hate, and sorrow into an ultimately uplifting tale of family dynamics.
The Globe Theatre continues its tradition of encouraging new works by New Zealanders by staging the premiere of this fine play.
