Carl Crescent Cubby Committee (2024) - a fun and playful story about the generational wars of Carl Crescent. All a group of 11 year olds want to do is build a cubby house over the summer, but the groups, associations and committees that make up the residents of Carl Crescent may have other ideas - not to mention their annoying siblings.

Under the Blue Blood Moon (2019) - A post narrative exploration of gender construction invoking broken narrative, poetry, multimedia and physical theatre.

[In the works - a collection of plays written for students 8 - 18 which have been created over 10 years for acting students]

​

Adult Theatre

Flat Pack (2024) - Debbie had to put Dad into a nursing home and now it's up to her to pack up his garage. Before she can pack it all up, she'll have to unpack all the memories.

[In the works - Get in my Box: a peri-menopausal rebirth story]
