The Cardinal Rules
NZSL Interpreted Performance(s), Touch Tour(s), Relaxed Performance(s)
Thoroughly relatable humour, staggering humanity...and pushy Aunties from the ancestral plane!
Engulfed by nostalgia, a woman stands at the funeral of a primary school friend that she hasn't seen in years. As she remembers her 90's childhood in a close-knit suburban Catholic community, she questions how their lives diverged.
When two peculiar beings disrupt her sense of reality, she is forced to
re-evaluate her understanding of everything she thought she knew.
An unlikely coming of (middle) age story about facing the uncomfortable
realities of the past and living in the present.
