13 – 28 September @ Melville Theatre, Palmyra ·
Presented by Melville Theatre ·

Memory and nostalgia are key elements of The Nightwatchman at Melville Theatre, as three people move into a new chapter of their lives.

Written by Daniel Keene and directed by Siobhán O’Gara, the play follows a brother and sister as they return to their family home to help their now-blind father move into an elderly care facility. As they assemble for a final supper to say goodbye to their family home, memories come flooding back and the family history is re-visited with resentments simmering against current tensions in their lives.

The Nightwatchman plays at 8pm September 13, 14, 19, 20, 21, 26, 27 and 28 and at 2pm on September 22. Tickets are $20, $15 concession – book on 9330 4565 or at www.meltheco.org.au.

Melville Theatre is at 393A Canning Highway (corner of Stock Road), Palmyra.
