Over and Out

Created and performed by Jackson Burling
"NEVER become a truck driver!" - A young Jackson Burling took that advice, avoiding the fork in the road, but now, after a long and gruelling two year slog in the arts industry he must confront that age old question: "why not, Dad?" - and take us along for the ride. In Over and Out, premiering at the 2025 TAHI Festival, Burling brings a real interview, a big character, and even bigger questions to the stage.
One actor. 50 minutes. Countless emotional potholes. Along the way, we get a rare look into the gritty, heartfelt, and often-overlooked life of one of Aotearoa’s essential workers: the truck driver. Is the open road calling — or is the stage his true destination? Buckle up. This is verbatim theatre with serious mileage.
