This award-winning play brings coming-of-age zest, unrequited love and an after-dark downpour of oranges to Riverside Theatres.

Overview
Coming of age in the suburbs of Perth is proving to be an angst-ridden journey for Zadie. There's uninvited house guests causing trouble, cute boys to avoid and siblings to keep out of strife — not to mention the white neighbours' racially charged compliments. Add in a nightly pelting of oranges on the family home and you've got the makings of a juicy comedy with a squeeze of mystery.
Orange Thrower is the award-winning debut play from interdisciplinary artist Kirsty Marillier (who also stars as Zadie), with direction from Zindzi Okenyo (Masquerade, Girl in Tan Boots). Performed through the lens of Zadie's post-apartheid South African identity, this stunning piece of theatre has seen audiences from Perth to Sydney connect to its themes of love, celebration and yearning for acceptance.
Keen for a joyous hit of comedy and culture? Orange Thrower will play at Parramatta's Riverside Theatres from Wednesday, March 30, till Saturday, April 2. For more information and to nab tickets, visit the website.
