BITE ME – ATYP The Voices Project

Overview

In the latest instalment of The Voices Project, ATYP presents BITE ME, a collection of ten monologues written by some of the country's finest young playwriting talents and published by Currency Press. Covering every theme from vegetarianism to disastrous blind dates to slow eaters, young actors from around the country will be bringing these original pieces to life.

Promising to take a warm, irreverent and cheeky approach in its exploration of how what we eat affects who we are, the show is directed by Anthony Skuse (Punk Rock, 4000 Miles), who has worked with the company for over 15 years. Skuse says, "I think some people will find some of the stories challenging. People may recognise themselves in characters and situations. They will be moved, made to laugh and perhaps reflect on the complex ways food figures in our lives."

At just 100 minutes, BITE ME should be a short but action-packed night out for any one keen to grab a glimpse of the future of Aussie theatre.
