LEAVES
n exotic wilderness. Three men and a birthday cake. In this world premiere of Leaves, you are invited along on a dark and hilarious lost weekend in a new Australian play by Steve McGrath.
Chas has arranged his old school friends; Harvey, a lawyer, and Wilbur; a psychiatrist, to spend a camping weekend in a remote paradise. Chas may be a successful real estate agent, but has he chosen heaven or hell?
As they attempt to celebrate turning 50 years old together, their campfire tales take a muddy detour during a feast of booze, beef and barbiturates. Will they make it to Monday morning – or will their weekend become “Waiting for Godot” meets “Picnic at Hanging Rock”?
Feedback/Comments
We didn't find it stimulating at all as a production. Not our cup of tea, though the owners of the venue were delightful and great premises, so we would love to go and see another production there for certain. Located in a great area with fantastic eating venues.
Luved it , great acting and funny . Also liked the video which complemented it .
Very entertaining although the staging was a little basic
Really Really enjoyable in a great little location
good acting and quite funny in parts
Had some good lines but ending didn't work somehow
Great witty banter throughout the play, background video photage added excellent dimension
Hi
Unfortunately I was not able to attend
My mum's dog ate snail pellets and was having a fit
I had to help my Mum take her dog to the vet
Sorry for this
I hope you understand
Thanks

Somehow this play failed to hit the mark - not quite funny enough, not quite dramatic enough
Very funny. Great use of video and photos within play. Only thing missing were the bush flies
