About

In hot, bushfire-prone Australia our winters are becoming warmer and shorter.
Will climate change erase winter leaving it to exist only in fairy tales, paintings, and historical accounts?

The End of Winter is about loss and resilience, written in the wake of the devastation of the 2019 bush fires it asks: What’s happening to winter? A celebration of winter and a warning about climate change, The End of Winter leans into the most significant issue of our time – the changing climate and the loss of seasons.

A poetic and thought provoking new one woman work that explores the intimate connection between the individual and global issues we are all facing.

★★★★ – “The End of Winter is often enlightening, often sobering, and occasionally laugh-out-loud funny. Recommended.”

Diana Simmonds, Stage Noise

“Exquisitely written… one woman’s cerebral, deeply personal, eco-poetic odyssey, in which she travels through the realms of childhood memories and forgotten histories, science and art, folklore and myth to present a paean to winter, sung in the key of anticipatory loss.”

Kate Pendergast, Audrey Journal

An elegy for the romance of cold and for the imminent loss of seasons…
