Producing an original show with a group of 13-16 year olds is no mean feat, but this lot make it feel like a dream.

Performing THEIR show, written, directed and curated THEM as part of a programme full of incredible professionals from near and far is nothing short of sensational. EVERYONE commented on what a professional team they are and cannot believe it when I tell them how old they are.

These guys made it an honour to proudly wear our T-shirt and tell everyone “We’re from grubbies” 🤍

SO Festival thank you so much for commissioning us to make this show and trusting us to perform as part of your incredible program.

Oh and Mabo, we love you - always the best crowd, the best crack and the best icecream.

Honestly, we’re a truly humbled by this village and this community that we have made. The talent, commitment and energy these kids have - on and off stage is something that really can’t be explained.

4 - expanding foam turds
5 - the perfect catch?
6 - Nancy and Char doing what they do best
7 - our office cleaner is gonna be fumin
