2 Actors. 11 Characters. The Giles family is inviting you for dinner.
The beast is fattened and ready for the slaughter. Father’s on carving duty. Mother is on vegetables. Adversary daughters Courtney and Diane have dessert covered. Son-in-law Francois is in charge of looking good while the prodigal son, Anthony, just wants to be left alone. Granddaughter Tamsin wants her desires satisfied. Now.
And adopted son, Rupert? Well, he just wants everyone to have a good time…
From Thomas Sainsbury, the writer of Luv, The Mall and Loser and the producers of Mr Marmalade (Chapman Tripp Production of the Year 2008), comes a family tale of love, sibling rivalry and very sharp knives.
Sunday Roast features Martyn Wood (Sexual Perversity in Chicago, Angels in America) and Renee Lyons (Life is a Dream, Backstory).
"To say Thomas Sainsbury is an exciting new talent in New Zealand theatre is an understatement. He's the most challenging, down-to-earth, funny and refreshingly unsettling playwright/director I've come across in years."- Sian Robertson
“…a playwright with something to say, and saying it with a theatrical flair that is refreshing and stimulating." – The Dominion Post
"Thomas Sainsbury is a remarkable talent … I can see him fast becoming a classic playwright of his generation.” – Theatreview
