Facing the dawn of the 21st century the world is moving away from the Nietzschean preoccupation that God is Dead, only to find in our new century we will be praying to an iron God— who doesn’t care. Set in the heart of a small Western Australian country town this moving and gutsy play is a look at the impact of a young man’s suicide on the lives of the family and friends that are left behind. Through the abrasive drama,four young teenagers struggle to find a voice to express themselves and the unsettling environment in which they live.
