When The Rain Stops Falling
by Andrew Bovell
a collaboration with Hossein Valamanesh and Brink Productions

Alice Springs in the year 2039. A fish falls from the sky and lands at the feet of Gabriel York. It still smells of the sea.

Brink's multi-award-winning production of When The Rain Stops Falling returns to Adelaide in 2010 for 5 shows only.

If you missed it last time, this is your last chance to see this acclaimed production, the surprise theatrical hit of the 2008 Adelaide Festival. If you’ve already seen it then come again and bring a friend. Impress them with a show hailed by critics as an Australian classic. You’ll laugh and cry and gasp out loud.

Seen and loved by 56,000 people throughout the nation, this epic piece of theatrical storytelling is bold. It’s brilliant. It’s breathtaking.
