Event description

"Waiting for the perfect wave to break; a man sits with his surfboard, his eyes trained to the horizon, looking for the first signs of a new swell."

A mesmerising solo piece of theatre, Shore Break brings the universal experience of searching for human connection and meaning to vivid life. Underpinned by compelling empathy, the sharp and emotionally precise writing is illuminated by a staggeringly powerful performance from one of South Australia’s leading actors. 

Shore Break is an intimate portrait of a lost soul living in self-imposed isolation having turned his back on society. As he looks to the ocean for answers and reflects on life events of heartbreak, confusion and disconnection, he tries to make sense of it all before it’s too late. 

Through his authentic connection with the audience, Chris Pitman performs this moving story with tremendous warmth, humour and gut-wrenching honesty.

Don’t miss this breathtaking theatrical experience.

“It is with utter conviction that I urge you to see this work.”
- Stage Whispers

“The performance and script by Chris Pitman are a tour de force, and the standing ovation well-deserved after this marathon of a monologue. The direction by Chelsea Griffith is subtle and uncluttered. A compelling and quintessentially Australian theatre piece with universal appeal, this powerful play is an important addition to our understanding of ourselves and our own contribution to this world."
- The Clothesline

“Shore Break is a beautifully crafted, poignant and a thought-provoking piece of theatre that showcases Pitman’s storytelling power. I implore you, do not miss it.
- Lia Loves
