Beschreibung
Mr. Melancholy is an absurd comedy of solitude and sorrow. Three hermits, living in a lighthouse without a light, discover a runaway circus clown washed ashore.
'Cameron seems heir to the existentialism of a Samuel Beckett, the absurdities of a Goon Show and the hauntingly melancholic whimsy of cartoonist Michael Leunig.' - The Bulletin
Footprints on Water is a darkly comic parable of belief and judgement. A religious zealot wills God to wipe out his morally bankrupt village so he can start the world again.
'Exudes a palpable sense of apocalypse. If Footprints on Water is any indication, Australian theatre is in safe hands.' - The Age
