This is new Queensland theatre writing on the razor’s edge between the political and personal, comedy and despair, rage and hope.

Seven Brisbane writers, one bold provocation: It’s happening all over the damn place, all over the world… the fracturing of everything… nations, ethnicities, races, genders, the environment - into so many splintered parts.

These seven writers have each delivered a poignant and powerful play for two actors, split across times and perspectives.

Joining the actors on stage is Tyrone Noonan (George) weaving songs and sounds inspired by these short plays, set in a place as familiar and strange as our own backyard.
