LORD OF THE FLIES
By / Nigel Williams, after William Golding
Direction / Jeff Kingsford-Brown
Design / Hayley Douglas, Josh Finegan, Talya Pilcher and Theo Wijnsma
NO ADULTS. NO RULES. NO MERCY.
A plane crashes on a deserted island. The only survivors are a group of schoolkids. By day, it’s a tropical paradise of sun and sea; but each night, their dreams are haunted by a terrifying beast. Thrust into a teenage version of Survivor, before long this well-behaved group turns into a bloodthirsty and murderous tribe.
William Golding’s 20th century classic explodes onto the stage in our next Open Stage production. Led by a dynamic and fearless cast of professional young actors, and supported by members of the Manawatu community, this acclaimed adaptation is guaranteed to grip from start to finish.
