Black Swan State Theatre Company Presents FLOOD, Now thru 2 Feb

BLACK SWAN State Theatre Company will present Chris Isaacs' FLOOD, from tonight, 17 Jan. - 2 Feb.

What is the cost of protecting your friends?

It is the summer of their lives. Six Perth friends, young, privileged and bullet-proof, are back together over the holidays to take a trip into the Mid West. As they travel deeper into the land, they edge closer to the dark heart of the Australian psyche. When something unexpected happens, their impulsive decisions have lethal consequences.

Which of your friends would be the best at keeping a secret? Who would crack first under pressure? And what lengths would you go to in order to protect 'the group'?

Presented as part of the BLACK SWAN Lab in the Studio Underground, this bold new work explores how it is to live with the realities we choose to bury.

"Adam Mitchell, perennially young and quintessentially hip, brings his expertise and insight to our new venture, the BLACK SWAN Lab. Using all his theatrical nous and collaborative genius, along with a touch of the mad scientist, Adam is set to stir things up with Chris' new play Flood. I am thrilled that Chris emerges onto our stage with a play about his generation, a group of friends in their 20s on a weekend getaway that goes really bad, really fast."
