Week Three – with 10 short plays nightly
Licence to Thrill, Paulene Turners’ 9th Short+Sweet play turns James Bond on his head (and round and round) as this huge Bond fan (who once met Daniel Craig) directs her latest comedy starring David Hodgkins, Rebecca Towns and Eveline Schubert. With Andrew Cohen’s production assistance.
In A Silent Agreement, LGBTI+ filmmaker and naturist Davo Hardy keeps his kit on while performing in Auslan, portraying a stuttering writer who is inspired by a profoundly deaf man. A tale of hurdles overcome, teachers & students, stolen art, humiliation, defeat and redemption. All in 10 minutes!
Steven Hayet’s Dinosaur is a comedy about two flatmates with two tickets to a show. Jamie wants Spencer to come out… but she believes if she goes outside she will be eaten by a dinosaur! Victoria Lewis directs Tara Simmonds & Rebecca Nowell.
In another duo buddy comedy, Lachlan McWilliam directs the thoroughly absurd Trapped by Barry Wood (UK). Gemma-May Bowles and Yvonne Dallman star as the two reality-bending friends.
USA playwright Sybil Curry’s Interrupted sees two jilted lovers speak truths about their respective relationships. Then something unexpected happens… at – of all places – the airport. Reena Akhtar directs Suzan Mufumbiro and Adolphus Waylee.
Sally by Nick Subjak is directed by Adam Dear and stars Charlotte Connor and Deborah Faye-Lee.
Two women share their harrowing tale of escape. What happened and how did they escape??
NZ writer Mike Daley’s A Few Small Hours is inspired by Matt Starring songs and sees a couple grapple with both their past and uncertain future in the wake of an unexpected diagnosis. Valencia (Spain) resident Lidia Grasso comes to Sydney to direct Steffi Gil and Alexander Davison.
