THE KEYS TO THE ANIMAL ROOM

by Peta Murray

This play was commissioned on the subject of domestic violence. It charts the cycles of abuse within the relationship of Julia and Carl over a period of seven years and focuses specifically on a womans' experience of invisibility and terror. It challenges the community to look beyond the sanctity of the home and to 'break the silence' on family violence and abuse.
