1 1 Once Upon a Sky Kate Sherman , Freya Sant , 2010 single work drama '"Once Under a Sky" is a whimsical yet energetic tale of two fisherwomen who journey from their seaside village to arid desert. Today is a day like no other.... May thinks that August is a fish, she believes she has an upside down tree in her chest and she wipes up their puddle they have been caring for the last 17 years. When they realise the watering holes have dried up the women are forced to embark on a journey away from their comforts and into the terrifying desert. In a moment of desperation they fish in a tiny pool of spit and uncover a mighty storm and grief as big as the heart of a whale.' Source: /www.oldfitzroy.com.au (Sighted 25/05/2011).
