SUNSET STRIP
by SUZIE MILLER
9 July – 3 August 2024
“Look, I’m a fuck up, but maybe there’s some beauty in just surviving.”
How far will you go and what will you put up with in the name of family?
Sisters Caroline and Phoebe have charted very different courses in their lives. While one escaped their hometown, the struggling holiday hamlet of Sunset Strip, the other has stayed, caring for their father in between her stints in rehab and battles with DOCS.
Now Caroline has returned, recovering from chemotherapy, to find the ever-optimistic Phoebe newly in love and determined to make life fabulous, despite dad’s decline into dementia.
From acclaimed playwright Suzie Miller (Prima Facie, RBG: Of Many, One) comes this heartwarming examination of family love and surviving the worst that life can serve up with humour and resilience.
