Marooned, a play that confronts the subject of suicide, will be on show in Yarrawonga on Saturday, November 2 and Sunday November 3 at the Yarrawonga Town Hall for free.
The play contains references to suicide and other mental health issues and leaves the topic with less stigma, shame and silence and more people talking.
The play involves four souls that are marooned in a room in the afterlife.
They have no connection other than they have all tried but failed to take their own lives.
They don’t know how they survived but as time passes they begin to yearn to go home and fear that they won’t. A fear and a want that manifests into an insatiable hunger to live. But despite this hunger they are marooned.
The question is asked in the play; is there is something they must do or address before the gods will send them back? If so, what? The only thing they do have in this room is each other.
This highly acclaimed play is performed by professional actors within the Wolves Theatre Company and will be a unique opportunity for the people of Yarrawonga Mulwala and the surrounding district to see it for free.
