A folk tale retold, a timeless hotel, and one woman's thirst for more. Anna Rushmer’s latest creation is a morally ambiguous, darkly humorous psychological thriller integrating storytelling, music and dance.
Verity has everything just the way she likes it, under her control. So why does she now feel a haunting presence, the sense she’s being lied to, and an overwhelming fatigue? It’s time for past secrets to come to light, specifically a red-hot one.Spark Sanders Robinson and Rushmer direct this new theatre work starring Madison Chippendale that examines desire, anger and guilt from a woman's perspective. Reimagining music from French composer Frank Martin, Firehawk is alternately whimsical and demanding, building tension and unease, conveyed emotively by Ella Roper’s choreography.
