The Next Stage Theatre Festival returns this January with a lineup of ten companies showcasing a cross-section of our exciting indie performance community. With many familiar faces from past Fringe Festivals, the 2018 programming is a true representation of the 'best of the fest'. The festival will take over Factory Theatre from January 3 to 14, 2018.

18 distinct characters; voices reflecting, ranting and pondering on the state of our world and how they fit into it. These men touch upon spirituality (or lack there of), terrorism, money, fame, social status and redemption (or lack there of). They are at times: touching and sarcastic, intriguing and off-putting, hilarious and heartbreaking.

Walker's Dead Metaphor has been called 'A killer comedy by a master playwright in top form'.
