One day. One wish. Two lovers find themselves shipwrecked on a strange shore. As Helen and Robyn slowly piece together the nature of their predicament, what emerges is an unravelling of everything they thought they knew about themselves, each other and the life they’ve created. An extraordinary two-hander starring Sheridan Harbridge (Prima Facie) and Jing-Xuan Chan (SBS's The Family Law), Meet Me at Dawn is the dramatic collision of delicate love story and philosophical mystery. Drawing from the ancient myth of Orpheus and Eurydice – inspiration for iconic films such as Moulin Rouge and Inception – Scottish playwright Zinnie Harris masterfully weaves together moments of fierce humour, tenderness and courage.
