Intersection 2019: Arrival

About

It’s midnight and twin siblings argue over what to do with the dog they just ran over. In a school common room a student is struggling to clean a sharpie drawing of a you-know-what off a window. In an undisclosed location a boy prepares for his new life in a special witness protection program for embarrassed youths.

Intersection 20—19: Arrival is a collection of short plays written by some of Australia’s most exciting young writers. Each year ATYP brings together 20 playwrights from across the country and challenges them to create stories that speak to the experience of being seventeen—years—old in Australia, here and now. The ten most startling pieces are put on stage.

“ATYP is a critical part of the national theatre ecology. Its program of plays and workshops are designed to introduce young people in the arts, and it nurtures young actors, designers, and writers, allowing them the opportunity to hone their skills and make their professional theatre debut.” Time Out Sydney
