Christine Harris and HIT Productions presents David Williamson's Travelling North
Bruce Myles - Director
Terence Donovan - Frank
Sandy Gore - Francis
Frank (Terence Donovan - Neighbours) and Frances (Sandy Gore - Brides of Christ) find new life in a twilight love affair, to the consternation of their conventional children. Their dream takes them both north to the sun, but no sooner do they fi nd their idyll, than signs of mortality betray Frank's lion spirit. Travelling North is David Williamson's tribute to the generation that fought for change in Australia from the 30s to the 70s. Set in the early 70s, this heart warming play explores the attitudes of the era with great heart.
However there is another dimension to this play and that is, simply, that life is about renewal, growth and moving on.
"While the story does have a serious side and looks at relationships between older people, it does naturally have much comedy, as expected from Williamson, and is I feel a piece that many mature people can and will relate to." - John Gunn, 3CR's "Curtain Up", Sundays at One
