A world premiere romantic (un)comedy about finding yourself falling in love, falling apart, and falling back together again.

Sydney Arts Guide ★★★★★ "Recommended for all to try, no matter how you love."

Stage Noise ★★★★ "Funny, touching, and deliciously surprising. Do yourself a favour and experience another way of defying gravity."

AU Review ★★★★ "Bradford Elmore‘s sexual celebratory romantic dramedy flips the usual boy-meets-girl narrative."

City Hub "Full of feeling without sacrificing being funny... it's fantastic"

SMH " Genuinely Funny."

Heather and Christopher have been married for a decade. Ten years of books, sci-fi, and experimental cooking. Life is good, or as good as they should expect it to be.

Then Christopher meets David.

And David meets Heather.

A queer take on the romantic comedy genre, Gravity is the story of what can happen when you think you're satisfied, only to discover that your story is still evolving.

Framing the pan-romanticism and polyamory frontiers through humour and heartfulness, Kentucky-born playwright Bradford Elmore's debut work, directed by Anthony Skuse, is a deeply personal, funny, and sensual story of one person's need to understand who they are, and what love looks like when gender is only part of the question.

Gravity was a National Queer Playwriting finalist, and makes its much-anticipated world premiere at QTOPIA Sydney after previous selection for the Mardi Gras Playlist and award residencies with Sydney Fringe’s Art in Isolation and Rogue Projects’ Rogues on the Rocks programs.
