Stick

Stick
a short, sharp, evocative collection of monologues written by some of Australias leading young and established playwrights. each piece is crafted for an actor aged between 16 and 20. Subtle, uplifting, poetic and funny, these pieces are as exciting and diverse as the young actors that perform them.
