To end the year on a blast we are staging a reading of Michael Gray Griffith’s new play, the comedy

“Adrifting Through the Vomit Generation”.

A new image with four women in the picture boat is under construction.

The Synopsis
Three women are marooned in one suburban house that is just about to be repossessed; they are defiantly trying to hang on to their individual dreams that they secretly know are now out of their reach. Then an older woman, Margaret arrives and claims that she’s here to save them. They are convinced that the only thing that can save them is money; the trouble is this older woman is claiming she doesn’t have any! Rather, she is determined to convince them that beyond the ruins of their Great Australian Dreams lies a deeper, far more adventurous and satisfying life.
