We’ve got two bangin’ scenes coming together this time — Really Really by Paul Downs Colaizzo and Glengarry Glen Ross by David Mamet — so I think it’s going to be another fascinating, insightful and cracking evening of theatre and live scene work.
Thanks as always for having us and for all your support.
An Intervention
A Play by Mike Bartlett
23rd June – 4th July
“You’ve become a bit of a pr*ck, haven’t you?”
Ever lost a best friend to their new partner? Or alcohol? Or a political cause? Ever woken up one day to find you don’t even recognise the person they’ve become? Did you let them go, or did you fight tooth and nail to keep them in your life?
An Intervention, by the multi-award-winning Mike Bartlett (SNOWFLAKE, King Charles III), is the story of a friendship pushed to its limits as values diverge. When one friend doesn’t turn up to the protest, the other begins to question everything she thought she knew about him, and before long they discover that their worldviews may be irreconcilable.
“You should have a pint of something deadly like absinthe or meth.”
“I’d prefer port.”
Bartlett’s writing is razor-sharp, playful, surprising, and full of comic intelligence. A two-hander, with a pace and wit reminiscent of Morecombe and Wise, An Intervention is in the safe hands of Sydney comedy duo Brea Macey and Jake Harvey. Directed by theatre veteran Mike Booth, this production by Harvey Family Co. promises an exhilarating night at the theatre.
It’s the kind of theatre that stays with an audience; this play is electrifying.
‘[An Intervention] has Bartlett’s astute wit and extraordinary ability to pinpoint the way maturity can suddenly slip away’

Gruesome Playground Injuries
Why do we hurt ourselves?
Kayleen and Doug are destined for each other. After a chance encounter in the school sick bay, they find themselves pulled back together again and again, like stitches over an open wound.
Unorthodox Productions launches onto the independent theatre circuit with Gruesome Playground Injuries by Rajiv Joseph, a darkly funny play exploring the milestones that make us (and break us).
Messy, complicated, funny and deeply painful, Gruesome Playground Injuries asks whether a relationship can last when its participants are bent on their own self-destruction.

After their mother’s death, two estranged half-sisters clash over the ownership of a rare and valuable stamp collection. One wants to keep it, the other to sell it, and their dispute draws in a trio of scheming men from the seedy world of stamp dealing. As alliances shift and hidden motives surface, the fight for the stamps escalates into a high-stakes battle of greed, betrayal, and survival.
