HTC Youth's first 2009 production was the haunting production of Ruby Moon, written by Australian playwright Matt Cameron and directed by Elise Dorian.
Ruby Moon is a dark, psychological mystery - a fairytale that quickly becomes a baffling and desperate search for a little girl. In
picturesque Flaming Tree Grove, 10-year-old Ruby vanishes on the way to visit her grandmother. A strange package appears on her parents'
doorstep prompting Ray and Sylvie Moon to interrogate the suspicious and quirky characters in their street. Their distress intensifies as the mystery deepens and we are left plagued by Ruby's absence.
Elise Dorian (Peter Pan, Blackrock, Cosi) directed a talented HTC Youth cast including:
- Julia Foskey as Ruby Moon
- Jessica Cole as Sylvie
- Eben Rojter as Ray
- Jackie Duncan as Dulcie
- Tony Cocking as Sid
- Debbie Govorcin as Veronica
- David Yeates as Sonny Jim
- Michelle Wittrup as Dawn
- Tim Camilleri as Carl
- Rory Shepherd as Wizard
Backstage crew included Richard Gorr, Brittany Goss and Jessi Galitis-Sant.
