On Valentine’s Day in 1900, a group of teenage schoolgirls go on a picnic to the forbidding Hanging Rock. Three vanish without a trace.
A tale that came to author Joan Lindsay in a dream, and was brought to international recognition through Peter Weir’s film, PICNIC AT HANGING ROCK unfolds against a backdrop of Australia’s wild natural beauty, exploring the fates of spirited young women determined to navigate the constraints of their futures. In giving voice to those who have been kept silent, it also brings a compelling First Nations perspective to light. Do not miss this “remarkable addition to the musical theater canon (Washington Post)!”
