On the Trail of Ruby Moon at Bondi

On the Trail of Ruby Moon at Bondi

“It begins like a fairytale…”

Matt Cameron’s fractured fairytale from the dark heart of suburbia, Ruby Moon, unravels during February 2014 at Bondi Pavilion Theatre. Follow the trail of Ruby Moon, the little girl in the red and white polka dot dress, who went out one day to visit her Grandma, never to return...

Caught in a cycle of grief, prompted by the pain of not-knowing - her parents Sylvie & Ray venture into the dark terrain of their neighbours’ houses to seek some answers. What has happened to Ruby? How did their straightforward lives in Flaming Tree Grove turn into this surreal nightmare? Can any of their neighbours be trusted or are they all suspect?

Anne Wilson and Scott Grimley are no strangers to this mysterious play. A Drama teacher as well as an actor, Anne has taught Ruby Moon to HSC classes for nearly a decade. “As my students and I have delved into this intriguing text, I have been inspired more and more every year by its power to illuminate and surprise in endless ways, shifting an audience’s expectations of the familiar.” Scott has reprised his role after performing it in 2010, “It’s a demanding show to perform, but very fulfilling. We inhabit over nine characters, transforming before the audience's eyes. The text is so rich and the characters magnetic. Ruby Moon is a play that never leaves you.”

Enter into the world of make believe, the world of imagination, the world of dust covered memory and bizarre secrets. A darkly comic, unsettling tale that unearths the oddities in our neighbourhood and buried within ourselves.
