Normal
Fri, 21st to 23rd July '23
Presented by Jopuka Productions
An urban detective story in which the investigator is a teenage girl and the body is her own.
Directed by Talullah Eden
Emerging Director Tahlia Nott
Poppy has developed a tic. A twitch. A spasm. It spreads through her body, then her group of school friends and before long, the whole town. Nobody can explain it, but as the disease spreads, the community begins to fracture along lines that turn into deep fissures. Who or what is to blame? And how are they going to fix it?
Inspired by the true story of ‘the town that caught Tourettes', this new work by award-winning playwright Katie Pollock is dark, provocative and theatrically inventive.
The intimate atmosphere of the Launch Pad will invite you deeper into the heart of the mystery and the unfolding human drama.
Normal is the winner of the Inscription/Edward Albee Playwriting Scholarship and the Ingenious Grant from Town Hall Theatre, MA (USA).
Featuring a cast of Female identifying and Non Binary performers.
