Infidelity, manipulation and murder crowd in as du Maurier’s tightly knit narrative unfolds, and questions of identity, memory and obsession play out in spellbinding fashion. Performed by a powerhouse cast including Pamela Rabe, Nikki Shiels and Bert LaBonté, Rebecca promises to be one of the major new productions of the Australian stage in 2025.

When a young woman falls hard for a dashing older widower, she moves to his bewitching country estate with no idea of the dark history that lies lurking amongst the grounds. The spectre of his first wife Rebecca infuses every shadowy corner while the domineering housekeeper Mrs Danvers is a constant watchful presence, determined to undermine her at every turn.
