Teenage siblings take the stage, and loyalties are challenged as each confronts their own grief and guilt. Barnes challenges patterns of blame that persist today when dealing with violence and sexuality. 

SHIT
Patricia Cornelius

Billy, Bobby and Sam speak with the voices of those who’ve survived foster care, institutionalisation, and neglect. They love no-one and no-one loves them. They believe the world is shit, that their lives are shit, that they are shit.

Letters to Lindy
Alana Valentine

Letters to Lindy draws on correspondence and interviews with Lindy Chamberlain-Creighton. It is an enthralling, revealing, and long overdue dialogue between Lindy and the nation; a portrait of the wisdom and resilience of a grieving mother.

The Treatment
Martin Crimp

New York. A film studio. A young woman has an urgent story to tell. But here, people are products, movies are money and sex sells. And the rights to your life can be a dangerous commodity to exploit.

Natives
Glenn Waldron

Three countries. Three teenagers. One average, life-altering day. A young man battles with feelings of love and violence. Another is stuck with the image of someone being pushed from a rooftop. And a girl must choose between her friends and her conscience.

The Bleeding Tree
Angus Cerini

In a dirt-dry town in rural Australia, a shot shatters the still night. A mother and her daughters have just welcomed home the man of the house—with a crack in the shins and a bullet in the neck. The only issue now is disposing of the body.

Cold Light
Alana Valentine, Frank Moorhouse

An epic story of national significance, Cold Light surveys the transformation of Australia from the post-WWII Menzies era to the mid-1970s Whitlam government and asks timely questions about Australia’s relationship to women of vision and people of difference.

Low Level Panic
Clare McIntyre

In this funny, unapologetic play, three twenty-something women figure out how they really feel about sex, their bodies and each other. With a vibrancy and stylistic freedom, Low Level Panic interrogates the effects of society's objectification of women.

Joanne and Lisa were like sisters. Then Lisa left. Now they’re back together for one last birthday party by the railway tracks. But can they salvage their friendship, or will ghosts of the past haunt them forever?

Darwin, 1942: Darwin is hit with more bombs than Pearl Harbour. Mr Takahashi turns the lens upon Darwin’s multicultural and Indigenous women whose lives were forever changed by the bombings of February 19.
