The Safety Net extends to the 9 Oct 2005

Broken Watch Theatre Company's The Safety Net, by Christopher Kyle, which was to close on the 2 Oct at the Michael Weller Theatre, has now extended to the 9 Oct 2005.

In the wake of his adopted brother's death, David discovers how far he will go to save his brother's family. Neglecting his own marriage and a promising law career, he returns to his Midwest home to uncover the secrets of his brother's past. Exploring the themes of race and class The Safety Net explores the true definition of family and what makes us who we are; birth parents? the parents who raised us? or the family we create for ourselves?
