MAYHEM & Madness

At Bittersweet Productions we curate and perform rarely seen one-act plays by famous and forgotten authors. Up next we present two comedies and a drama. Each play explores the mayhem and madness of living in a world that is out of kilter.

The Pot Boiler by Alice Gerstenberg is a satiric take on the construct of producing a play – with farcical and physical comedy a plenty. Director: Sarah Carradine

The Jewish Wife by Bertolt Brecht is a 10-minute sketch where we feel the full weight of history and its madness and glimpse the scale of the disruption that dictatorship may produce in a simple domestic world. Director: John Grinston

Gosforth’s Fete by Alan Ayckbourn is a riotous exploration of small-town life. No matter what are peoples’ best intentions, everything goes stupendously wrong, and the comic gods are unleashed. Director: Christine Firkin.

Three plays in one visit to the glorious art deco Independent Theatre in North Sydney.

DOORS OPEN 30 mins prior to performance.
