Sarah began writing at the age of 15 participating in four National Young Playwrights Workshops and two WA Young Playwrights Workshops. In 1994 she attended the National Playwrights Conference with her play Who the Fuck is Erica Price which was later produced as part of Artrage, the WA fringe festival, and recently read by Griffin Theatre Company. As a member of the West Australian Writers Laboratory in 1995 and 1996, Sarah wrote Fashion Tips For the Young and Beautiful and BORED.

In May 1998 Sarah worked as a writer with Salamanca Theatre Company on Reality Check, a theatre piece which examines the structures and stereotypes of various mass media genres. Sarah is now working on the second draft of Real, a play about real estate agents.

Top of PageWho the Fuck Is Erica Price
Synopsis:
Erica Price is a lonely poet and a busy prostitute. In her desperation for companionship she dreams of a better world. In her fight for the revolution she is struggling to be free. Through observation and experience Erica constructs a unique picture of her world. She creates a vision of the world as it should be. She studies her street and her world in anticipation of the changes to come. The men who visit often interrupt her thoughts or undermine her beliefs; occasionally they strengthen her dream. Some of these men have already journeyed, some are preparing. Most won't bother. Now that the revolution is coming, there is no return for Erica Price. To continue her life without change means failure. To change her life means she could lose everything.
