Griffin has extended the season of the very popular ‘Orange Thrower’. Orange Thrower is the award-winning debut play from Kirsty Marillier – “A fresh twist on the Australian coming-of-age story, this play is a joyful comedy, a curious mystery, and a poignant love letter to South African women.” Winner of the Rodney Seaborn Playwrights Award and a co-production with Riverside’s National Theatre of Parramatta. The show received positive reviews along with the good crowds which is always great to see. Theatre Now did not attend the season but here is what others are saying.
“The diverse characters bounce off each other, lighting up the stage like a pinball machine, erupting into hysterical laughter, joyous dancing and quivering epiphanies.” Harriet Cunningham, The Sydney Morning Herald
“This team of creatives and visionaries have weathered storms and pandemics to bring this inspiring and thoughtful piece to the intimate space of the Stables Theatre.” Christina Donoghue, Limelight Magazine
“There is something original in Marillier and Okenyo’s mode of storytelling that takes a little getting used to, with an innovative spirit that ultimately proves gratifying.” Suzy Wrong, Suzy Goes See
