"As an Australian Catholic, I appreciate that secularism is not an imposition on our religious freedom: it is, in fact, the only guarantee of its protection."

Werewolf | Melbourne Fringe
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. Werewolf Cast: Ben Walter, Alexandra Aldrich, Simon Corfield, James O'Connell, Michelle Perera Creatives:Associate Director: Marni Mount Set and Costume Design: Harry GillLighting Design: Sidney Younger Sound Design: Daniel Nixon Stage Manager: Genevieve Davidson This theatre work is developed and presented in collaboration with Arts Centre Melbourne and Melbourne Fringe.

WHAHEY! *Another* fantastic review for “Werewolf” at Arts Centre Melbourne, this time from Melbourning. “Darkly comic and socially poignant” and I am SO GLAD to find a reviewer who knew what horror tropes we are riffing.
