Administration
A one-person darkly comedic play about growing up autistic (and not knowing it).
Stumbling into a therapist's office with a stack of paperwork, (and stories to match) Addy recounts what it was like to grow up in a small town Catholic school. Through vignettes from Addy's life, we come to realise the impact your environment can have on coming to accept who you are. We experience how someone may learn to abandon their childhood curiosity and natural expression in favour of an exterior mask: the polar opposite of the internal world.
'Administration' welcomes you into a space where we can come together and laugh at some shared experiences.
