“Why did you make me this way? Why fill me with such cruel ambition and then set me down in a time and place where I can do nothing about it?”
In rural New South Wales, 1899, Sybylla Melvyn is a force of nature—a young woman of spirit, born in the wrong time and place, but filled with dreams. Will she be a writer? An actor? An artist, a musician, a politician? Will she explore the world? Any one of these would be better than the path of wife and mother seemingly predestined for her. Determined to outrun the odds, Sybylla must contend with the expectations of society, the disappointments of family, and the beating of her own heart.
The classic Australian novel by Miles Franklin has been adapted into a straight play by Australian playwright Kendall Feaver.
The playwright has asked that casting for all future productions continues to reflect the diversity of modern day Australia. Actors who are passionate, experienced and/or up for a challenge of all ages, abilities and cultural backgrounds are encouraged to audition.
