WEREWOLF

World premiere of a pitch black, sly political-thriller set in contemporary Melbourne.

In Werewolf, modern extremism and old Hollywood horror collide.

A fascist speaking tour is arriving in Melbourne, and while government and media figures struggle to understand its impact, local radicals from the hard left and far right prepare for a bloody confrontation with excitement.

As tensions build and violence looms, the line between who people are and who they pretend to be becomes blurred, leading to monstrous transformations.

With twists, shocks and 80s horror film tropes, Werewolf is both darkly funny stage noir and serious social commentary on the new clash between old extremes.

This theatre work is developed and presented in collaboration with Arts Centre Melbourne and Melbourne Fringe.
