Performing Seals

Synopsis:
This play revolves around a bizarre inversion of the traditional 'happy family'. Seventeen-year-old Sonny lives in Kings Cross. His best friend is Jo, a stripper. Daddy pays Sonny's rent and always knows what's best for his Sonny. All hell breaks loose when Sonny defies Daddy. A stark examination of power - of submission and dominance, control and role-playing - in a queer 'family'.

Ring-A-Ring-A-Rosy

Synopsis:
Prize-winning play in 1990 National Aids Drama Script Competition; designed to dispel myths and provide information (while remaining entertaining) regarding HIV transmission. Through the presentation of a variety of contempory relationships, the story-line (which focuses mainly on 17-year-old Rosy and her boyfriend, Peter) deals with a group of people who affect each other's lives without realising that their actions could have dangerous repercussions.
