Set in the 1960s, [The Season at Sarsaparilla] offers a scathing attack on the emptiness of life the Great Australian Suburb, whilst equally paying homage to those that live there.
The Season at Sarsaparilla, at its simplest, is a portrait of overlapping lives presented as a series of sub-plots. The action follows the workaday lives of three families where the cycle of life is played out repeatedly. Birth, death, love, mateship, betrayal, loss, infidelity, desire and abuse shape the entire action of the play. — Theatre Australia
