WHEN THE RAIN
STOPS FALLING
By Andrew Bovell
Spanning four generations and moving between past, present and future, When The Rain Stops Falling is an ambitious and deeply moving exploration of family, memory, secrets and the legacies we leave behind.
Beginning with a mysterious event in the future and weaving backwards and forwards through time, Andrew Bovell's acclaimed play follows two interconnected families as they grapple with inherited trauma, fractured relationships and the unanswered questions that shape their lives. As stories unfold across generations, the connections between seemingly unrelated events begin to emerge, revealing a complex tapestry of love, loss, betrayal and forgiveness.
Presented at the Playhouse, this production invites audiences into one of contemporary Australian theatre's most celebrated works. Atmospheric, poetic and hauntingly beautiful, When The Rain Stops Falling is a powerful reminder that the past is never quite as far behind us as we might hope.
A story about family, the things we inherit, and whether we can ever truly escape the stories that came before us.
