Hunter Drama's Actors Company present DNA by Dennis Kelly

After the near-sellout success of the Arthur Miller classic The Crucible, Hunter Drama returns to The Playhouse at Civic Theatre Newcastle with another searing examination of group guilt, power, and moral collapse, only this time, the witches have been replaced by teenagers.
DNA is a razor-sharp psychological thriller that peels back the darkness of the teenage mind. As with Arthur Miller’s The Crucible, it asks: When fear takes over, who will stay silent? Who will lead? And who will break?
A terrible act. A dead boy. A pact that can’t be broken.
When a group of teenagers commit an unspeakable crime, panic drives them to cover it up. But the lie they create begins to mutate, twisting their friendships, warping their morality, and dragging them into a chilling spiral of manipulation and control.
Directed by James Chapman (Love & Information, War Of The Worlds, Now & Then) and performed by Hunter Drama’s powerhouse Actors Company ensemble, this production promises to leave audiences breathless - and haunted long after the lights go down.
