Thursday
Thursday's Child is the tale of Tin, Born on a Thursday and, like the old nursery rhyme, 'has far to go'. The play explores the spirit of hard struggle with change, cruel misfortune and the idea that life is a pre-determined fall from a great height. Thursday's Child is a poignant and intriguing story, ending in great hope. The Play is adapted from Sonya Hartnett’s award winning Novel.
