Original Creative Writing:
STEVEN SODERBERGH'S UNTITLED PROJECT REVEALED

Sydney Theatre Company presents


TOT MOM
Created by Steven Soderbergh


18 December 2009 to 31 January 2010. Opens 23 December 2009 at 8pm
Wharf 1, Sydney Theatre Company, Pier 4, Hickson Road, Walsh Bay.


The much anticipated final production of Sydney Theatre Company's 2009 Main Stage season, directed by Steven Soderbergh, explores issues associated with a real life murder case that is still unfolding in the United States. Tot Mom is based on events following the June 2008 disappearance of two-year-old Caylee Anthony in Florida and the high profile investigation into her disappearance, later discovered to be a homicide. The production is at Wharf 1 from 18 December 2009 to 31 January 2010.


Olivier Award winning and Tony Award nominated actress Essie Davis, last seen at STC seven years ago in The School For Scandal makes a welcome return to the Company and leads a stellar cast that also includes Wayne Blair, Zoe Carides, Damon Herriman, Rhys Muldoon and Peter Kowitz. The creative team is comprised of designers Peter England and Tess Schofield, lighting designer Damien Cooper and Composer/Sound Designer Paul Charlier.



The strange facts of the Caylee Anthony case baffled police investigators and sparked
intense and sensational media interest in the US. Nancy Grace, an often controversial legal commentator and host of a popular CNN nightly TV show of her own name, led a crusade for 'justice for Caylee' as the tragic story became a 24-hour news spectacle.

Using excerpts from transcripts of Nancy Grace's show, court documents and police reports, Steven Soderbergh has created a compelling drama for these sensationhungry times.

Cast: Wayne Blair, Zoe Carides, Essie Davis, Darren Gilshenan, Glenn Hazeldine, Genevieve
Hegney, Damon Herriman, Peter Kowitz, Rhys Muldoon, Emma Palmer.

Director: Steven Soderbergh. Set Designer: Peter England. Costume Designer: Tess
Schofield. Lighting Designer: Damien Cooper. Composer/Sound Designer: Paul Charlier.
