Phillip Herd's 'Rain Falling on the Abattoir' will be performed at the Cracked Actors Theatre (CAT) for Summer Reading 2022 (Should COVID restrictions be in force this performance will take place online).Snout has seen the years roll by without taking action over her life. Amidst a backdrop of the End of the World, Snout is knocked back with the sudden departure of her childhood friend and comfort in this world, Emmylou.
She finds the courage to venture forth alone.. She takes back her name, takes control of her life, and leaves behind her damp apartment, and the sound of rain. Finding solace and comfort in being alone; finally going somewhere…
