Letters to Lindy

Director: Darren Yap
Designer: James Browne
Co-Composer/Co-Sound Designer: Max Lambert, Roger Lock

With Jeanette Cronin, Glenn Hazeldine, Phillip Hinton and Jane Phegan

The story captivated a nation. A mother accused of murdering her child, her claim – that the baby was taken by a dingo – denied and discredited by zealous police and a flawed legal system. The media circus, the rumours, the mob mentality, and a nation’s prejudices laid bare.

Playwright Alana Valentine, actor Jeanette Cronin, and Artistic Director Simon Hinton talk about this moving and authentic new work that explores our fascination with one of 20th Century Australia’s most iconic figures, Lindy Chamberlain-Creighton.
