Christian Bennet plays Treat in the theatre production ‘Orphans’ currently playing at The Baxter Theatre.
The charismatic Christian Bennett is no stranger to the big and small screen, playing all sorts of villains, but the Thespian brings a different kind of criminal character to life in his latest outing at the Baxter Theatre.
‘Orphans’ is Bennett’s first theatre production in over a decade.
‘Orphans’ tells the story of two brothers who have their lives disrupted when they abduct a mysterious wealthy businessman, Harold (played by Abduragman Adams).
The dark, yet comedic, story of the two grown orphans – the younger, sensitive, and reclusive Phillip (Stefan Erasmus) and the older Treat, a violent pickpocketer (Christian Bennett) – are confronted by a dramatic twist of fate, landing them into a whirlpool of emotions, revelations, and life-altering decisions.
Their world is disrupted by Harold as nature clashes with nurture and all three characters venture into unknown territory.
