A drama by Carl Nixon/NZ/2007
Directed by Jason Te Mete
Season: May 8-29, 8pm.
Matinees: May 9 & 16, 6pm.
Set in a West Coast bach, The Raft is a beautiful and evocative play about the healing power of love. When a river floods and a family are stranded, they are forced to try to pick up the pieces of their lives. Experience how one stormy weekend becomes a stunning night of theatre, sprinkled with the funny, silly and endearing bonding moments that happen even when a family are at odds.
Gifted with Nixons highly workable dialogue, a powerful human story of insight, drama and compassion is assured Theatreview.
The raft is a metaphor for not having any control over things, for being pushed around by the currents Carl Nixon.
Some language may offend. By arrangement with Playmarket.
