A group of more or less ordinary Sydneysiders go about their lives: Anna makes toast, Henry dresses for work, Milla catches the train to school, Moses deals drugs-that kind of thing. But hovering above this unholy parade of life is the sobering fact that Milla will be dead before her fifteenth birthday.

But wait... this is a comedy.

Rita Kalnejais has corralled an unlikely collective of characters-a grieving mum, a junkie, a girl dying of cancer, an eight-year-old Vietnamese violin prodigy, and a Latvian immigrant among them-to realise an extraordinary play about life, death and gratitude.

Kalnejais, Rita: - RITA KALNEJAIS is a Victorian College of Arts graduate who has worked extensively as an actor at Belvoir, Griffin, Malthouse and Sydney Theatre Companies. Her first play B.C. was directed by Simon Stone and was nominated for Best New Australian Play in the 2009 Green Room Awards. Her short plays Whistling in Bed and How To Get Very Clean were performed at Sydney Theatre Company in 2011. Whistling was later presented by Caryl Churchill at Theatre 503, London. In 2012 Kalnejais' play Babyteeth premiered at Belvoir St Theatre and was subsequently produced by the State Theatre Company of South Australia in 2013. She was resident playwright at Sydney Theatre Company in 2011 and at Soho Theatre, London, in 2014/2015. First Love is the Revolution enjoyed a popular season at Soho Theatre in 2015.

She is currently under commission by Bell Shakespeare, Belvoir and the National and Yard Theatres, London. In film, Kalnejais is adapting young adult novel Under Rose Tainted Skies for Stephen Garrett's company Character7.
