Dark Seed is an original script by Philip Brophy, developed with producer Fiona Eagger. A contemporary psychological drama, it traces the interconnections between 3 women and the dark gender undercurrents which shape their lives and personalities.

Script development for the project was received in two stages between 1997 and 1998 - firstly from Film Victoria and secondly from the Screen Producer Association of Australia. Each funding was directed towards workshops with actors after which redrafts were undertaken, followed by readings. Both readings took place at the Malthouse, Melbourne.

Actors for the first Film Victoria workshop/reading were: (to be entered).

Actors for the second SPAA workshop/reading were: (to be entered).

For the second workshop, a series of musical sketches were developed to reflect the psychological make-up of the three women. These sketches were employed both in the the workshop and the reading.
