Don't Hate The Player
Theatre and Physical Theatre
New South Wales • SA Premiere
A witty and fresh tale of youth both trapped and liberated by technology.
Darcy and her reluctant sister enter the world of a virtual reality video
game where they find themselves working as drug-ring receptionists.
Inside, IT histories are available to all players and there's no way of
knowing if those you meet are real or simulated. This contemporary comedy
evokes a new reality for both the characters and the audience. How many
games do we play already?
The show premiered in Sydney at the Old Fitz Theatre in October 2019 to sell
out audiences.
Featuring Atharv Kolhatkar (God of Carnage, Curry Kings of Parramatta), Maddie
Osborne (Love and Information), Cassius Russell (Trainspotting, Robots Vs.
Art) and Rhiannon Watson (The Bald Soprano). Written by Laura McDonald and
directed by Melanie Tweddell.
