Trawled
- when adventure becomes survival
Based on a true story.
A jaw-dropping story set on the Coral Sea, Australia.
An Irish backpacker blags his way onto an Aussie prawn trawler.
There he discovers a rarely seen world of hard labour and harder fishermen, where drinking, fighting, storms and hungry sharks are part of everyday life.
His raw, exuberant story of adventure twists dramatically into survival culminating in an unforgettable moment of redemptive grace.
Trawled is a one-man biographical drama. The actor plays himself 26 years younger!
This is classic storytelling that plays out like a movie.
★★★★★ "Trawled is a play that cannot be missed" Theatre Thoughts Australia

Feedback/Comments
Really good performance.
Great storytelling
Ok poor audio hard to hear
Great story telling and a hard hitting show, we could hear without any problems and enjoyed, thank you OTH.
Fabulous performance, but unfortunately we could not hear most of the dialogue
We were in the front row, so fortunately able to generally hear the performance okay. Unbelievably disturbing story which reminded me of Wake in Fright and casts a shadow over Australian society and a culture of bullying. Well told and immersive performance.
His voice too soft without microphone
Unfortunately sound was poor (no microphone) and my friend and I were unable to hear most of it. The performer appeared to deliver his story with passion and gusto.
Great story. Nice performance.
