Red Ticket

Does the past ever leave us?

Set in the former Fremantle Lunatic Asylum, now a community arts centre, Red Ticket explores the shared connection of two women, a century apart, struggling with mental health issues after childbirth. 

Lily is a new mum drowning under the pressures of motherhood. In search of community and answers to her depression, she takes up classes at The Fremantle Arts Centre. She begins to uncover the dark history of the building and the story of Poppy Florence Grey, a former patient at the asylum. Soon she starts to feel like someone is watching her…and the line begins to blur between what is real and what isn’t.  

Madness or Misogyny? Red Ticket explores the trope of the woman locked in the attic for her own good and honours the stories of the women who paid the ultimate price.
