Welcome to Nowhere
25 September 2015
Coopers Malthouse, Tower Theatre
to 3 October

Five incredible writers (Angus Cerini, Zoey Dawson, Daniel Keene, Fleur Kilpatrick and Morgan Rose), one fantabulous director (Emma Valente) and a heap of amazing students from Monash Uni.
If you have to choose one show this weekend, this is it.
Morgan Rose's piece is the highlight. Up to now, I've been unsure of her work but now I totally get her.
Fleur's is all alieny and full of gentle magical realism and heart, Zoey's is loud and mad, Daniel's is about families and dealing with the death of a father who broke his own family, and Angus's is violent and confronting. What more could you want in a night at the theatre!
Working with incredible students who perform, designed and operate, Emma has made these disparate writings come together as a work that speaks even louder than its parts.
