Things I Know to be True

20 March to 17 April, the Court Theatre, Christchurch

Described as a snapshot of life, Australian playwright Andrew Bovell’s tender, moving and highly relatable family drama focuses on Fran and Bob Price. After 30 happy years together, they are preparing to “slow down and smell the roses” until the lives of their adult children come crashing through the backdoor. “I thought they’d be like us. But better than us. That’s what we worked so hard for. Wasn’t it?” Co-produced by Wellington’s Circa Theatre. courttheatre.org.nz
