In a drought-stricken town, a group of daughters run away from their homes and meet up in a paddock beneath a dead tree.
​
Their worried and disappointed mothers converge in one house.
​
They're haunted by their unhappy pasts and stunted by bleak futures. Perhaps they are inextricably linked to the dry, cracked earth, for when the sky finally breaks, so do they - and the future looks just that little bit brighter.
​
Raindance was written as an end of year performance for an all-female year twelve drama class in 2002, while Mellor was a student. It was written to complement and showcase each performer's characterisation skills.
