Literary Agent:    n/a

Back to Back Theatre was founded in Geelong in 1987 to create theatre with people who are perceived to have a disability. It has gone on to become one of Australias leading creative voices, focusing on moral, philosophical and political questions about the value of individual lives. With a full-time ensemble of five actors, Back to Back creates work that is idiosyncratic, passionate and at times confronting. Back to Backs ensemble is made up of actors perceived to have intellectual disabilities, a group of people who, in a culture obsessed with perfection and surgically enhanced beauty, are the real outsiders. This position of marginality provides them with a unique and at time subversive view of the world. The stories they create explore the cold, dark side of our times, be it sexuality of people with disabilities, the uses of artificial intelligence and genetic screening, unfulfilled desire, the inevitability of death, and what the fixation with economic rationality and utilitarianism means for people excluded from the norm.

Food Court

Synopsis:
Set in the lush minimalism of an illuminated white void, the story of one woman's humiliation is played out in a psychological space constructed of light and sound. Luminously fragile, Food Court is a near death experience in a suburban wonderland where a small fatality of dignity takes place between The Asian Hut and The Juice Bar.

Small Metal Objects

Synopsis:
An ingenious theatrical gem, small metal objects unfolds amid the pedestrian traffic against the backdrop of the city. On a raised seating bank with individual sets of headphones, the audience is wired in to an intensely personal drama being played out somewhere in the crowd. Gary and Steve are the kind of men who normally escape notice. But here they play an inadvertent but pivotal role in the night of two ambitious executives they?ve arranged to meet for a transaction. As the intimacy of their situation develops, small metal objects becomes a sly and luminous depiction of everyday issues most take for granted.

Tour Guide

Synopsis:
The first experimental incarnation of TOUR GUIDE was created in collaboration with community members from Malaria, SOundSO Theater & Schrage Vagel in Linz (Austria) as part of Linz 09 European Cultural Capital 09. Like an audio tour at an institution such as a museum, TOUR GUIDE offers an audience an insight to the cultural artifacts of humanity, in this case public life in the Linz's Volksgarten in summer. Instead of viewing a contemporary painting or an ancient artifact, the spectators were treated to a voyeuristic insight into the private conversations of the living.

Woodenhead

Synopsis:
Queen Louise rules her comic court of fools until the po-faced bishop stops their bawdy fun. The peace of King Kenneth's palace is disturbed by rowdy peasants demanding food. In a feat of medieval economic rationalism, Kenneth figures that if there are fewer peasants than less food will be needed. Woodenhead is a medieval fable with many reasons for modern times. Where do the intellectually disabled, deformed, and the different fit in our contemporary, urbanised and increasingly dislocated societies?
