The Culture - A New Play

What do you call it when a woman threads her keys through her fingers on the walk to her car?
What do you call it when a man is catfished because of his sexual orientation?
What do you call it when he breaks her property, isolates her, and gives her a black eye?

We call it 'The Culture'.

Katie and Will are best friends, podcast hosts, woke and VERY single. The search for love in the modern world can be dangerous for a gay man and a woman. Is their friendship enough to keep them safe?

Set in Sydney Australia, The Culture is Powersuit Productions’ debut work, examing a pervasive sexual culture which is giving rise to an epidemic of family violence. In Australia one woman is killed each week at the hands of a partner, and intimate partner violence is the number one non-disease related cause of death or disability of women ages 15-44. 

A one-act dramedy, The Culture tackles heavy issues with a light touch, using the warmth and intimate banter between two best friends. Audiences are welcomed into Will and Katie’s living room and into an important wider conversation. 

We'd love to chat to you in the foyer after the show!
