Presents:
 
  A night of deliciously hair-raising twisted tales...
Four original West Australian Plays in one season! Are we crazy? Come along and find out...
 
THE LINE UP:

'The Shoemaker's Daughter'

Written and starring Jess Messenger, Directed by Esther Longhurst.

A wacky fairy tale with a mind of it's own. When two actors set out to tell a fairly straightforward story, havoc ensues as the characters rebel and everything becomes a little too real.

From the writer who brought you 'A Lovely Lobster Tale' and 'Free Coffee for the Driver' comes an imaginative and hilarious journey into the secret world of hair growth.

'Miss Perth 23'

Devised by Phil Barnett, Katie Cameron and Daniel Kershaw, Directed by Daniel Kershaw

What if you could taste words? When a young woman, suffering from a condition known as synaesthesia, meets an older man over a dating website, she quickly becomes obsessed with him--because his words taste delicious.
