'Published in a collection, Peter Beaglehole’s Strata and Piri Eddy’s Forgiveness are both muscular and challenging, and provide entertaining perspectives on contemporary Australia and examine relationships between people and the land we live on.' (Publication summary)
These plays were first produced independently as Strata//Forgiveness in a double bill at RUMPUS, South Australia on 9 February 2021.
'Set amongst the impending climate crisis, back dropped by an idyllic beach setting, Strata is a relationship drama in reverse. Travelling through the past, present, and not-too-distant future, the darkly comedic Strata traces the roots of betrayal between Robyn, her twin brother and her husband. They love each other and distrust each other just as deeply. As we move backwards in time, Strata explores love, secrets and the impact of humans on the planet.' (Publication summary)
