Synopsis: Pamela Maude is deeply affected by her discovery of a corpse under the Hills Hoist. This find catalyses a hilariously manic succession of events: suicides, sibling rivalry, sexual coupling, a mysterious double-pregnancy and an uncloseting. . . With the help of her actress sister, a used Porsche salesman, a futures broker and a confused detective, Pamela Maude must resolve the mystery of the unidentified cadaver, so she can find the key to happiness for them all. Casually demented but seriously funny, Fred has played to sell-out seasons throughout Australia. | ||||

Synopsis: A story of refugees from an ancient Greek Warship on its way from Troy to 1980's Poland, through an eclectic collage of styles that fragment, distort and recombine as stories cross and re-cross. The divide between the geography of modern political history and the history within the heart begins to disappear. Tom, a refugee, Philocetes, a Greek soldier in the Trojan wars and Caspian X, (son of the famous Holocaust poet 'X') tell their personal stories. | ||||
