Black Swan Presents the Australian Premiere of LET THE RIGHT ONE IN

A deeply moving and enigmatic tale of friendship - of promises made and bonds sealed in blood.

This stage adaptation of the acclaimed Swedish novel and film, Let the Right One In, tells of a friendship between a boy and a centuries-old vampire. Oskar is a bullied lonely teenager living with his mother on a housing estate on the outskirts of town. Eli is the young girl who has just moved in next door. She doesn't go to school and never leaves the flat by day.

Sensing in each other a kindred spirit, the two become devoted friends. What Oskar doesn't know is that Eli has been a teenager for a very, very long time. When a spate of sinister killings rock the neighbourhood, their lives become further entwined. How will they survive in a world that seems destined to tear them apart?

New Artistic Director Clare Watson marks her BLACK SWAN directorial debut with this beguiling myth and coming-of-age love story.

"Let the Right One In will be the BLACK SWAN debut for both of the extraordinary lead actors, Sophia Forrest and Ian Michael. Creating new relationships in a rehearsal room and sharing the characters' tenderness and intimacy with the audience is one of the great joys of making theatre. I think that this, the AUSTRALIAN PREMIERE of Let the Right One In, will inspire love and thrill in equal measure." - Clare Watson
