Synopsis

There s this feeling, in my gut. Like a crackle. Makes me feel a bit sick. Feels like it s telling me something s gonna happen soon. Something s coming that s what I think. From Revolution is Coming, Maybe by Sian Murphy. As the world ends in a fire tornado, two young lovers find that breaking up is never easy. In a holding cell, a young woman arrested for graffiti wonders about Cardi B and climate change. The formal on Saturday night is going to be a magical evening or perhaps more like the revenge scene from a B grade horror movie. And two new friends need to track down a pet velociraptor right now before things get really bad. Each year, ATYP brings together 20 playwrights from around Australia, empowering them to create plays that connect with young performers and audiences. The Intersection Festival is the creative reimagining of our popular Voices Project and Intersection plays, giving young people the opportunity to perform brand new short plays written by some of the country s best new writers.

About this title

About the Author

ATYP, Australia's oldest and largest youth theatre company, has been bridging the divide between young people and professional theatre practice since 1963. Each year it brings together 20 young writers from across the country and challenges them to create stories. Its Voices Project which ran from 2011 to 2016, nurtured talented young playwrights in the development of seven-minute monologues for young actors. From 2017, it expanded the project to Intersection which features heartbreaking, funny and powerful interactions between characters in addition to monologues which together create a compelling snapshot of life at seventeen.
