Silent Spring Revisited - Rachel Carson's fight for nature
Rachel Carson has been in Jan Bolwell’s life since she was nine years old. Her conservationist grandmother introduced her to Carson’s famous book Silent Spring, that exposed the dangers of the chemical pesticide DDT. Jan revisits this book through adult eyes, as she plays Rachel Carson in her fight for nature.
An exciting creative team has worked collaboratively on this work - director Annie Ruth, composer Jan Bolton and lighting designer Helen Todd. Audiences find out about Rachel’s struggle to bring an important environmental issue into the light. They also are challenged to consider current ecological and environmental issues in their own backyard.
Jan Bolwell - ‘Wit, fluency, precision and charm..’
Please note: Your ticket price includes entry into Ngā Manu Nature Reserve from 10am to 5pm so we recommend you come earlier and have a look around!
