Peacock Theatre
STRANGER WITH MY FACE FILM FESTIVAL
By the pricking of their thumbs – writing horror and thriller for the stage Carrie Mclean (playwright, Beautiful – Mudlark)
With no editing suite, or the special effects that are widely used in horror films, what does it take to scare the pants off a patron sitting at the theatre? Reflecting on her own experiences, playwright Carrie McLean will discuss the restrictions and the opportunities that a live theatre setting can provoke in creating a horror or thriller play. She will also discuss how the Tasmanian landscape has contributed to the dark and mystical side of her work.
Booking not required, gold coin donation.
