Andy's experience is common to many of us; the slow accumulation of a good life: love, work, friendship, family. But unforeseen events lead him to places he never imagined.
As he heads off to work to give the biggest presentation of his career, he wishes his teenage son Robbie goodbye. Eight hours later, everything has changed.
The latest play from acclaimed Australian playwright Joanna Murray-Smith, American Song tackles the confronting and heartbreaking issue of gun violence, forgiveness and parental responsibility. With Murray-Smith's characteristically def wit and compassion she makes a difficult topic thoroughly gripping, wryly humorous and deeply moving.
Please stay for some light refreshments in the foyer after the performance.
"American Song is one of Joanna Murray-Smith's most mature, refined and important works... interesting... individual and universal... Petruzzi is such a good fit for the role... powerful and so well directed by Tom Healey" - The Australian
"Tragic and timely" - The Age
