Frame Narrative
Emily Sheehan

Emily Sheehan's Frame Narrative is a labyrinth of a play that whisks its audience from gothic thriller, to 90s trashy horror, to psychological drama. 

Destiny
Kirsty Marillier

South Africa. January 1976. As student uprisings surge and the shadow of apartheid deepens, family ties are tested, old wounds resurface and a generation stands on the edge of change.

Dear Young Monster
Pete MacHale

A young trans man, struggling as he begins his medical transition, drops out of university and retreats to his quiet hometown. His friends are gone. The neighbours are watching. His body is changing faster than he can make sense of it... until a midnight screening of Frankenstein offers him a strange kind of salvation.

Staring into the monster's big, dead, sad eyes, something finally clicks: for the first time, he feels seen.

Vivid, witty and humane, Dear Young…

Radha and Ryan
Nick Parsons
A white man stops a student. Different people from different worlds. The same gnawing fear. ‘Men are seriously confused and angry – but when men get angry they want to hurt someone … And mostly the first person they hurt is themselves.’
Red Like Fruit
Hannah Moscovitch

Meet Lauren: a journalist reporting on a high-profile domestic violence case with a growing sense of unease. Now meet Luke, whom Lauren has asked to tell her story.

Lauren's been thinking about a series of sexual events from her adolescence, and something has started to crack. Are these experiences just part of being a woman, or are they trauma? And does Luke have what it takes to help her understand her own life?

Powerful and provocative, Red Like Fruit interrogates…

Green Park
Elias Jamieson Brown

Green Park, picturesque by day, a little eerie by night. It’s where Warren and Edden are meeting, as a prelude to their Grindr hook up. One of them doesn't look like his photo. There's an age gap between them (but what's a decade or three?). And one is harbouring a dangerous secret. In an hour's time, both will leave the park profoundly transformed.

The Chosen Vessel
Dylan Van Den Berg

From award-winning Palawa playwright, Dylan Van Den Berg (Milk, Whitefella Yella Tree, Way Back When), comes an Aboriginal Gothic Horror and bold adaptation – a radical reimagining of Barbara Baynton's 'The Chosen Vessel'. This alternate version of Baynton's classic Australian story provokes us to reflect on what we choose to see – and what we wilfully ignore.

Caitríona Daly's The Lunch Punch Power Hour in Conference Room 4 is a madcap, hilarious and insightful play about power structures, escapism and resistance.

Poor Clare
Chiara Atik

Clare has it all. She's a noblewoman living her best life in medieval Italy, trying out hairstyles, and sharing the latest gossip with her sister and maids.

Everything is on track for her to marry some super-rich nobleman and live super-richly ever after. But on the streets of Assisi, she meets Francis, who's sharing some of the wildest ideas Clare has ever heard. And when she listens to what he has to say, her eyes are opened to a whole new way of living.

Chiara Atik's play…
