There¿s Liam, an NRL workhorse who¿s devoted to his code and his teammates; his older brother Dean, a top pick for the Brownlow, who tries desperately to clean up Liam¿s mess; and Amber, a promising young athlete who rests uneasily on the edge of complicity and victimhood.Cutting through the media-managed clichés of professional football, The Sublime plots an emotionally charged trajectory to expose human faults that go way beyond the sporting field.

Miss Julie
One of the greatest classics of modern theater concerns a willful young aristocrat's seduction of her father's valet during a Midsummer's Eve celebration. Complete with Strindberg's highly-regarded critical preface.
Morph
Looking at the intertwined lives of a young couple, 'Morph' explores the shifting dynamics of fear and desire. Be it damaged goods. Bullish. Solitary. A one-time roughneck from the Manila oil-fields. Grace is a swan. Supple. Dedicated. A dancer at the very height of her powers. A misalliance in motion. And as the world outside continues to advance at breakneck speed, can they hope to rebuild their shattered defences in time to protect themselves from each other? (1 Act, 1 male, 1 female).
