    Hensby & Beckett love to make their audiences laugh as much as they cry – theatre with heart, humour and grit. Their work in development, The Stars of Gold Rush Hill is a play for young people. Hungry for fame, four aspiring actors go off-script at a historical re-enactment theme park and experience the perils and hysterical consequences of making theatre.
