Set against the backdrop of the American Civil War in Georgia 1861, Summertime in the Garden of Eden narrates the story of a Southern belle who returns to the family plantation after a ten-year absence. Mimicking the aura of Gone With The Wind (1936) and Jezebel (1938), Summertime in the Garden of Eden will epitomise cotton-field farming, iced-tea and deep, dark family secrets.
Summertime in the Garden of Eden will start Melbourne scene-queens Agent Cleave and Olympia Bukkakis, alongside Peter Paltos, Genevieve Giuffe and Bessie Holland.
