Glory on Earth

Muff
Van Badham

The wounds of a horrific event are re-opened as Eve tries to navigate a friendship with her ex and his new partner. The play uses both grim sadness and dark humour to challenge perceptions of feminism and self-image in the prism of sexual love.

MinusOneSister
Anna Barnes

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.

Girl in the Machine
Stef Smith

Girl in the Machine is a disturbing but compassionate vision of our potential digital future, and what it might mean for 'life' as we know it. 

The Yellow Wave
Jane Miller

Soldier of fortune Philip Orloff and salt-of-the-earth Dick Hatten vie for the hand of stoic heroine Heather Cameron against a backdrop of invasion by a pair of Russian rail barons leading a Mongol force into the heart of Queensland.

Melbourne Talam
Rashma N Kalsie

Three young people see each other across a crowded Flagstaff station. They just missed the train. Now they wait. And think. They think about home: Punjab, Delhi, Hyderabad. And about how they just can't seem to get Melbourne's rhythm right. And of all the impossible things they must do to stay. And their time is running out.

Consent
Nina Raine

Friends Ed and Tim take opposing briefs in a rape case. The key witness is a woman whose life seems a world away from theirs. At home, their own lives begin to unravel as every version of the truth is challenged.

Parasites
Ninna Tersman

Two teenagers fleeing unthinkable dangers find solace in each other amidst the damaging confines of an asylum seeker processing centre. Their new 'home' offers a kind of safety, but very little in the way of humanity, and less kindness.
