Things I Know to be True by Andrew Bovell

Theatre Works

Things

"A thing of beauty, exquisitely observed. An absolute gem."
Daily Telegraph

‘Gently magical.’
Times

Bob and Fran have worked for thirty years to build a home and to raise a family. Now that the children have grown and moved out, it's their time to sit back and smell the roses. But as each season passes over the course of a year, each of their four children return to reveal a shattering truth that causes them to question the very foundations on which their family is built.
Featuring renowned screen and stage actor Belinda McClory, and directed by award-winning director Kitan Petkovski, Things I Know to be True is about loving too much, not loving enough and trying to find the right place in between.

Soon to be seen as a six part TV series starring Nicole Kidman, Theatre Works is proud to bring this remarkable play to Melbourne audiences.
