Presented by: The Manson Collective
The Manson Collective consists of actor, Helen O'Connor, famous for Crownies and Rake, legendary director Kim Hardwick and notorious writer Stephen Sewell, who came together to present this account of the life and times of the Manson Family in the belief that cults and their members are not only worth warning against, but make great theatre as well. Highly awarded for our solo work and deeply committed to the arts of theatre, we have brought together our collective experience to investigate one of the most appalling acts of cruelty and violence in America's long history of such acts and hope that as a result, you, like us, will find good reason to reject the claims of those many false prophets currently clamouring for our attention. The answer to hate is laughter, so here we are. Ready.
