Long Drive Together by Neptune Henriksen
From critically acclaimed writer/director Neptune Henriksen, comes a heartfelt play about the beauty of intersectional friendship, second coming-of-age, and moving through grief.
Long Drive Together is the story of two high school friends, Solar and Dylan, who reunite fifteen years later, to road trip from Adelaide to country NSW. The pair’s destination is the grave of their mutual friend, Charlie. It’s a long overdue visit, on the anniversary of her death by suicide.
Along the way, the pair joyfully reminisce and wonder if they still truly know each other.
Starring Neptune Henriksen & Lou Sebial.
