The December Brother

Where do you come from? What are your roots and how do they define who you are?

In her thirties, Rebecca is told she was adopted. She decides to track down her birth family but what she finds are murdered relatives, a sibling in jail, two sides to a story and no idea who to believe.

This is the thrilling final act of The December Brother as Tim Spite (SEEyD) brings two true stories into sharp contrast. That of his own father’s search for his birth family at a time when David Bain was accused of killing his.

The makers of Paua and Turbine return with a theatrical tour de force that asks if we can ever know who we really are.

“SEEyD has produced some of the best original works of the theatre of the past 10 years and, going on Spite’s record, there’s a good chance that this could be the play of the year.”
- The Dominion Post

“SEEyD is a company truly doing the hard work of forging relevant, thought-provoking and most importantly original New Zealand theatre."
- Capital Times

From the makers of Paua and Turbine.
