VIOLENT EXTREMISM AND OTHER ADULT PARTY GAMES Gets World Premiere Next Month at The Depot Theatre
Aint it Fun Theatre Co. presents VIOLENT EXTREMISM & OTHER ADULT PARTY GAMES, a satirical comedy - thriller that attacks hatred, fear and hypocrisy - by which we mean 21st century politics.
The truth can hurt. Especially in politics. Robert Kelly seems to have it all. Stardom. A beautiful wife. A big house. And an ability to look good in reaction shots.
Still, he's not happy. His conscience is kicking in through the coke haze and it's telling him that he's a shallower than a red-neck's gene pool.
But is entering politics the answer? Could he be a voice for the common Australian? And how many lies must he tell to serve the truth?
Following one disastrous morning involving a twitter-famous teenage nazi sympathizer, an accidental death (or two) and a faked terrorist siege with a former shock jock, he'll discover how far he must go to save the country and, more importantly, prove he's not a complete jerk.
Written by AWGIE winning writer Richie Black, the play is a new Australian work premiering November 15th at the Depot Theatre, Marrickville. Produced by Julian Ramundi with set design by Irma Calabrese, the cast featured Thomas G Burt, Julia Christensen, Dave Kirkham, Jodine Muir, Thomas Pidd, and Eleanor Stankiewicz.
Venue: The Depot Theatre, 142 Addison Rd, Marrickville
