Nineteen

Synopsis

What happens when you put a writer, a gym-rat, a tradie and a stoner all in one share-house? Mix in some aggression, a shared-ex, insecurity and unwavering pride and you've got yourself a recipe for manhood. But is that what it really means to be a man? Nineteen explores masculinity in young Australian men, uncovering a confronting and complex world few often want to talk about. Crafted from interviews with over ninety young people, Nineteen is both the hope and fear of the next generation. So if you're in the mood to see a story about love, vulnerability, affection, talking about your feelings and learning to become a kinder, softer human being... this is not the play for you…

Synopsis

Nerdy Prudes Must Die is a teen-slasher comedy about a group of geeks and their ghostly tormentor from the creators of The Guy Who Didn't Like Musicals and Black Friday. When the biggest losers at Hatchetfield High unwittingly complete an ancient, evil ritual, they unleash an all-powerful, angry spirit with a grudge against nerds. That's when Stephanie Lauter, Grace Chasity, and a cast of social rejects must fight to save themselves and nerdy prudes everywhere. But can any of them survive the fury of a bully from beyond the grave?

This land always was, and always will be, Aboriginal land.


Acknowledgement of Country

We pay our respects to the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander ancestors of this land, their spirits and their legacy. The foundations laid by these ancestors gives strength, inspiration and courage to the current and future generations, both indigenous and non-indigenous. Storytelling, a traditional method used to teach about cultural beliefs, values, customs, rituals, history, practices, relationships and ways of life, is embraced by Javeenbah Theatre, a cultural meeting place on the lands of the Yugambeh people. We honour this legacy of storytelling in our productions and practises.
