Inspired by a true story, Blackbird is a riveting play that raises challenging questions about society, morality and how the past irrevocably effects the present. Blackbird exposes the story of two people who shared a forbidden relationship fifteen years earlier, when she was 12 and he was 40. Una confronts Ray at his workplace, and the unflinching study of their affair that follows reveals the brutal truth of unconventional love with shattering consequences.

Blackbird stars 2010 Helpmann Award winning actor Humphrey Bower (Richard III - Melbourne Theatre Company, City Homicide - Network 7) and Anna Houston (Tender Napalm - Perth Theatre Company, As You Like It - Bell Shakespeare Company).

Perth Theatre Company Artistic Director and Director of Blackbird, Melissa Cantwell, leads a finely assembled creative team of Claude Marcos (Set and Costume Design), Matthew Marshall (Lighting Design) and Peter Dawson (Sound Design) – the same trio that helped her create PTC’s 2011, controversial smash-hit, Tender Napalm.

Regarded as one of contemporary theatre’s most significant and celebrated writers, Harrower’s Blackbird was a five-star sensation of the Edinburgh Festival and has gone on to be internationally recognized as a modern masterpiece having won the Laurence Olivier Award for Best New Play in 2007.
