Two young women stand in darkness next to each other. They have a blank look on their face and headphones around their ears.

Two young women sit on arm chairs next to each other. They are both holding gaming controllers and look ready for battle. There is colourful graffiti all around them.

Two young women lie on the ground looking up at the sky, their heads close together. One is wearing yellow, the other pink. Their expression is one of defeat.

The pandemic is afoot and two student game developers are still learning to deal with their newly restricted lives when they are paired to work together for their final assignment of the year. When Monique, a driven and neurotic-at-the-best-of-times perfectionist meets Bailey, a relaxed optimist with a real problem with authority, their personal and creative boundaries begin to get pushed. Confronted with a quickly looming deadline, a rather misfit partnership and an unshakable feeling of dread, the women are forced to fight the effects of isolation more than ever as they work to pass the subject. In this newly devised theatre piece, performers Brittany Gallasch and Jasmine Warland showcase the resilience of the human spirit and explore where our minds took us when we all stayed inside.

Presented by: Brittany Gallasch & Jasmine Warland
