AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'Rosehaven is a small (fictional) town in Tasmania, it is proper country, beyond the reach of tree changers. Daniel (Luke McGregor) is moving home to take over the family real-estate business while his domineering and frankly terrifying mother is incapacitated. Daniel’s best friend and perpetual teenager, Emma (Celia Pacquola), arrives at Daniel’s door, hiding out from a marriage that didn’t last the honeymoon. Daniel offers Emma a job and together they try and turn around a failing business coping with unreasonable landlords, stubborn tenants, sullen staff and never ending (sometimes quite intrusive) invitations to join the local mixed netball team. Created by and starring Luke McGregor and Celia Pacquola, Rosehaven will be a primetime series for ABC, shot entirely in regional Tasmania.' (Production summary)
