This is the premiere performance of a new work by New York playwright of The Drunk Monologues - Diane Spodarek.Fifteen years after an aborted love affair in New York, American poet Crystal and Kiwi bloke Horse agree to give it another go in a secluded bach by the sea in New Zealand.

Experiences full of mystery and intrigue occur during Crystal's daily walks by the sea and over four seasons Crystal discovers Kapiti Coast's more ominous side - the ghosts of Pukerua Bay and the seduction of the sea.

Why does Crystal have blood on her hands?

WINTER is a poetic journey about being the 'other', presenting a sharp, dark and humorous drama about love, loss and the cultural clash between the USA and Aotearoa.

Featuring Melissa Billington (La Boheme) and Nigel Edgecombe (The Last 5 Years, Les Miserables).

"Told with skill, tautly written, and dryly humorous prose." - Laurie Atkinson, The Dominion Post. (The Drunk Monologues).
