ENCOUNTERS - four short plays by Alex Broun
Four short plays by Alex Broun, award winning Australian playwright one of the world’s most performed ten-minute playwrights, often referred to as the “Shakespeare of short plays”.
An ensemble of ethnically and age diverse Australian actors, spanning from Green-Room-Award winning to experienced all-rounders, internationally renowned movie/stage performers to versatile rookies tells stories about the human condition from quiet drama to hilariously funny comedy.
Yell(ow) – A chain of revelations in a fragile relationship means love and loyalties are tested.
The Dead Sun – Love goes both ways… forgiving and accepting.
You – Who did it with whom, as love spirals out of control?
Disco Bombing – The truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the cost.
