The Messenger

I love this cast. A stunning bunch of Australian actors - bringing to life a script that has nuance, power, and love. It's fanciful, kind, and surprising. It's a relief to sit with characters who aim to succeed with thought and gentility- without always getting it right. A show to sink into.

This show peels away at noise, and tries to remind you what it's like to feel. To close your eyes and remember your best relationships. To remember how to want to seize the best things. And weed the garden of crap things.

If you want The Fast and The Furious... this isn't it. But maybe if you want a break from it, this is for you. If you squint, you can see yourself in every nicely drawn character here. Loved it.
