Matthew Whittet

A girl wakes one morning - a morning just like any other - and as she shovels down her breakfast she looks out the kitchen window, to the east, to the forest that lies just beyond her back fence. In the wake of the rising sun, just for a moment she sees something that catches her eye.

A delicate creature, part fable, part mystery, Silver tells the strange and beautiful tale of a young girl’s search for stillness lost. In a collision of lyrical form and compelling drama Silver is a masterful piece of storytelling, written and performed by one of Australia’s most versatile theatre artists. Matthew Whittet makes his debut on the Downstairs stage with this intimate and highly original solo work.
