Notes: | part of The Foreign Monologues | |||||
Synopsis: | a monologue based on an autobiographical book by a German explorer. Hans Staden was captured by cannibals in Brazil and married one of them, only to be kidnapped by well-meaning Frenchmen and returned home against his will. It is all the more bizarre and funny because it's supposedly a completely true story. | |||||

Notes: | part of The Monster Monologues | |||||
Synopsis: | Maxine Ruakura Monologue: Reflections from a New Zealand Lager Can by Samuel Elliot is a gritty tale of familial loyalty and betrayal, well played by Virginia Frankovich. Maxine is a Westie chick with a lot of attitude frequently thwarted by her abusive husband Bruce, driven to desperate actions through her love for her son Kaya. An honest attempt at a less amusingly expressed allegory, the lack of humour means it takes a bit more effort to follow the narrative. | |||||
