Ă propos de ce livre
Mob can't survive like that, you can't survive like that. We gotta talk to each other, as hard as it is, 'cause I guarantee you, that phone will ring and you'll have to say goodbye again.%##CHAR13##%%##CHAR13##%This play is about life.%##CHAR13##%%##CHAR13##%It begins with a death: on a hot morning under a house in Darwin, Ruben wakes to find his cousin Joe hanging from the rafters. What follows is the story of a family, buffeted by constant tragedy, holding itself togetherâas their people have done generation after generation. This play asks us: how do we deal with death? And how many other people does it take for each of us to live? Little by little, Ruben's family brings him back from the edge.

TeatroSCENE ONE
Six months ago. Dawn. August, during the build-up.
RUBEN is sitting in the hallway, against a wall. ADELE enters, dressed in basketball shorts and a singlet. Sheâs just woken up. She sees RUBEN.
ADELE: Youâre up early.
She crosses to the table and takes a cigarette and lighter from a packet. She puts the cigarette in her mouth but doesnât light it. She goes to the kitchen and boils the kettle.
Jesus, this heat is killin me.
She waits for the kettle to boil, makes a tea. Milky, two sugars.
You slept?
She heads outside with her tea and cigarette.
Why you sittin there, weirdo?
As ADELE exits, RUBEN attempts to say something to her, nothing comes out. ADELE gets outside and we hear her mug hit the ground. She stumbles back inside, shocked, stunned.
Joe! Jarrod, Jarrod, Jarrod! Jarrooood!
JARROD: [offstage] Whaaat?
ADELE: Joe, heâs⊠hurry! Hurry!
ADELE looks at RUBEN.
JARROD: [offstage] What?
ADELE: Jarroood!
JARROD: [offstage] Iâm up, what?!
JARROD enters.
ADELE: Hurryâ
ADELE rushes outside, JARROD follows behind her.
JARROD: Whatâs going /
ADELE: Help me lift himâ
JARROD: No, no, no, Joeâ
ADELE: Get a knife. [Beat.] Knife, Jarrod!
JARROD enters running. He goes to the kitchen, grabs a large knife and runs back outside.
Hurry!
We hear a plastic chair dragged, repositioned. JARROD stands on it and tries to cut his friend Joe out of a makeshift noose.
JARROD: Itâs not working. Fuck⊠the sinkersâ
ADELE: I canât hold himâ
JARROD: Knifeâs blunt⊠[He drops the knife.] Fuck!
ADELE: [calling to RUBEN] Ruben?! Grab another knife!
JARROD runs in, grabs another knife, runs out again.
I canât hold / him!
JARROD: Iâve got him, Iâve got him!
They swap position. We hear JARROD lift Joeâs body. ADELE stands on the plastic chair. Sounds of a knife cutting through net.
Hurry, Del.
ADELE: Itâs not cutting!
JARROD: Ruben!
ADELE: Fuuuuck!
JARROD: Can you untie it?
ADELE: I donât know.
JARROD: Try.
Beat.
ADELE: My hands.
JARROD: You can do it.
ADELE: Itâs tangled.
JARROD: Give it a sec.
ADELE: Iâm making it worse. Fuck!
The second knife drops to the ground.
Oh my God, I canâtâŠ
ADELE is crying.
JARROD: Ruben! [To ADELE] Oi, itâs okayâ
ADELE: Itâs not fucking okayâ
JARROD: / Ruben!
ADELE: I gotta get downâ
JARROD: Lift him, / Iâll tryâ
ADELE: [sobbing] Get him down, Jarrod, get him down â
JARROD: RUBEN!
ADELE: Get him down, get him downâ
JARROD walks into the house and looks at RUBEN.
[Crying] God⊠Jooooe!
RUBENâs broken in the corner, hiding his head. JARROD leaves him, goes back outside.
JARROD: Come inside, Del.
ADELE: No, no, I wonâtâ
JARROD: Come inside, / bub, now.
ADELE: No, noâ
JARROD: Thereâs nothing / we can doâ
ADELE: Get him down, Jarrod, get him⊠Put me down, arsehole!
JARROD enters carrying ADELE over his shoulder.
JARROD: Stop, Delâ
ADELE: Put me down!
JARROD puts ADELE down, stands in her way, blocking her.
JARROD: Thereâs nothing we can doâ
ADELE: I wonât leave him out there alone.
JARROD: Heâs gone, bub.
ADELE: Iâm not leaving him!
ADELE tries to get past JARROD. He holds her, restrains her, but she manages to make ground towards the door.
JARROD: Rubenâ
ADELE: Move, / donât leave himâ
JARROD: Shut the door!
ADELE: Joey! / Joe!
JARROD: / Ruben!
RUBEN stands.
ADELE: Fucking / move!
JARROD: Shut the door, Ruben!
ADELE: Let me / go!
RUBEN rushes towards the door.
JARROD: Ruben, SHUT THE FUCKING DOOR!
RUBEN finally slams the door shut.
SCENE TWO
Six months later. Itâs April, the beginning of the dry season.
RUBEN sits outside his old house, Balnba Road, iPod on, white earpieces in his ears. We hear the track as he would: âRule the Worldâ by Jimblah. He stands under a street lamp looking at the old house. He has a cap on backw...
