Plus Minus Productions, in association with Virginia Plain and Flight Path Theatre presents
Various Characters by Šime Knežević
WORLD PREMIERE
"How many times in your life have you asked yourself, why am I alone? I mean, what year is it?"
Nina wants to race into the future. Raoul wants one more chance. Mile wants to escape responsibility. Boris wants to live a romantic fantasy. Zita wants to rearrange the world. Greta wants to reverse her misfortune.
Various Characters follows the stories of six emotionally isolated characters, each grappling with their own personal coming-of-age, each determined to fulfil their dreams, or something close enough.
Set in the early days of the 21 century, a time of cultural collision and social decay, when Australia was starting to reckon with its troubled history and recognised an uncertain future. But it is also about now: the weird effects of cultural assimilation, how we understand difference, and how we might break through what divides us.
This production has an approximate runtime of 80 minutes, with no interval.
Writer: Šime Knežević Director: Victor Kalka Producer: Šime Knežević and Josephine Lee
