When seeking asylum puts you in one...

THE SHRINKING LEDGE is a madcap COMEDY/DRAMA - a FANTASY - about a writer, BROWN, who 'jumps' from the ledge of the 'real world' - one from which he craves escape - into a burlesque world of his own creation.
But when the fictional characters of BROWN'S invention start turning on him, and blurring with people from his 'real world', BROWN'S refuge seems anything but safe.
All BROWN needs to do is not to take himself so seriously...If only that were possible when everyone is laughing at him...

'IMPECCABLY PRESENTED AND PLENTY OF FUN' The Age

'...UNFORGETTABLE' Herald Sun

'...EXTREMELY FUNNY' The Australian.
