The Secret River – the play

Sydney Theatre Company poster

Earlier this year as part of the Sydney Festival the Sydney Theatre Company presented a stage version of Kate Grenville’s A Secret River, adapted by Andrew Bovell and directed by Neil Armfield. It was extremely well received – by critics and friends who saw it – and I am really sorry not to have been there to see it. I am now looking for a copy of the playscript which after a cursory Google I haven’t been able to find. If anyone happens to be reading this and can either tell me if such a thing is available, anywhere, and better still if you saw the production, I’d love to hear from you. Thanks.

 (And yes it is the same river.)
