About the Show

The Hanging by Angela Betzien, directed by Aimée Cavanagh

Dates: May 7 to 25, 2025

Two schoolgirls are missing in Melbourne's hinterland. The clock is ticking, and the search is on.

Do the answers lay with their closest friend and confidante? Enchanting and quick-witted, this 14-year-old ingénue won't give up her secrets easily. What exactly will the police uncover, and what does her English teacher have to hide?

Award-winning playwright Angela Betzien has created a crime thriller in the Australian Gothic tradition.
