'In the outer suburbs of an Australian city, our greatest bush poet, Daniel Gartrell, sits and rots. In a house covered with cockatoos and dark secrets, the only person to enter his self-imposed exile is his damaged daughter Sarah.
Until the arrival late one night of Craig Castevich, an aspiring young actor. Craig has been cast to play Daniel in a biographical film. Daniel dances him through a psychological minefield as the actor obsessively pursues his desire to unearth the key to the poet's haunted past, hidden within his most famous, but unfinished poem, Mt. Ragged.
By turns darkly humorous and intensely gripping, The Haunting of Daniel Gartrell follows a man's descent into the dark corners of this country's soul.' Source: /www.perththeatre.com.au (Sighted 28/07/2008).
