Based on the notorious 1954 Parker-Hulme murder, Michelanne Forster’s Daughters of Heaven tells the tale of two teenage girls who conspire to murder one of their own mothers. The play explores the breakdown of one moral universe and its replacement with another that is potent, powerful and, ultimately, tragic. Directed by Rachel Lenart, students of 139.104 Drama in Performance performed adaptation of Daughters of Heaven which featured techniques associated with the German playwright and theorist Bertold Brecht at the Black Sheep Theatre on Massey’s Palmerston North Campus on the 28th and 29th of May 2014.
