Miss Tanaka
John Romeril

Miss Tanaka is the beautiful and enigmatic niece of Broome’s former number one pearl diver. Newly arrived from Japan, she captures the hearts of the town's menfolk, but is promised in marriage to two brawling pearl divers. Who will uncover this mysterious young woman's true identity?

A Beautiful Life
Michael Futcher, Helen Howard

An Iranian family living in Australia attempts to escape memories of torture endured back home. Their role in the 1992 raid on the Iranian Embassy in Canberra leads to persecution by the Australian government. 

A simple and delightfully inventive re-telling of the stories from the Arabian Nights.

Love Suicides
John Romeril

Love Suicides is John Romeril’s homage to the eighteenth century Japanese master playwright, Chikamatsu Monzaemon. In a daring blend of cultures the play plots the destiny of two lovers—one from Osaka, the other from Perth.

East is East
Ayub Khan Din

The six Khan children, entangled in arranged marriages and bell-bottoms, are trying to find their way growing up in 1970s Salford. They are all caught between their Pakistani father's insistence on Asian traditions, their English mother's laissez-faire attitude, and their own wish to become citizens of the modern world.

Two powerful expressionist plays from the early career of one of the twentieth century's most significant writers. The Hairy Ape is a nightmarish condemnation of the dehumanising effects of industrialisation on the American people. All God's Chillun Got Wings is a vigorous social commentary based around a violently dysfunctional mixed-race marriage.

The Heartbreak Kid
Richard Barrett

A boisterous, moving play that explores the relationships of youth, the migrant experience and assumptions about teaching and learning.
