The Hour Before My Brother Dies |
2008 The Hour Before My Brother Dies A Play By DANIEL KEENE Directed By VICKI SMITH Set in Pentridge Prison circa 1960 After a four year absence, Sally visits her brother Martin in prison where he awaits execution for murder. During the visit, the two are quickly drawn back to a hot summer's New Years Eve night of many years ago. The two caress, wrestle, laugh at the shared jokes and taunt each other as they attempt to come to terms with the memories of a traumatic night that was so highly charged and erotic. The loss of a mother and the sorrow and hatred of a father adds further tension as Sally and Martin examine their past and the love/hate nature of their incestuous bond. Starring Ron Kofler as Martin Fiona Bechtold as Sally
