Description Two teenage girls conspire to murder the mother of one of them. Based on the notorious 1954 Parker-Hulme murder, this script explores the breakdown of one moral universe and its replacement with another that is potent, powerful and, ultimately, tragic. In this production, the two girsl were each played by two actors, to separate real and fantasy worlds.
