Stella Green Productions, the company behind Bedroom Farce, Angry Young Women in Low-Rise Jeans with High-Class Issues and the award winning feature film Twenty Ten, is back with its most daring theatre work yet.

Orange Flower Water, a darkly funny examination of infidelity by Six Feet Under writer Craig Wright, makes its Australian premiere at the Darlinghurst Theatre in March.

Starring Logie Award-winner Amy Mathews (Home and Away), Sebastian Goldspink (Heartbreak High), Megan Alston and Joseph Del Re, Orange Flower Water is sure to leave audiences tittering, chattering and perhaps even questioning their own precarious circumstances and hidden desires.

Orange Flower Water is a brooding, biting, seductive and ultimately life-affirming tale of the cruelties people inflict on the ones they love – or once loved – in order to stay alive.

“The playwright has a wonderful sense of humour and treads that fine line between confronting us and helping us to laugh at ourselves,” director Byron Kaye said.

“He paints a beautiful, funny but painfully real picture of four people struggling with the choices in their lives and the consequences of their decisions not only for themselves, but those closest to them.

“We have a great cast, a great script and we will be playing in a great theatre. I can’t wait to share this wonderful play with Sydney audiences.”

The play opens on March 26, with previews from March 23.
