DIRT - 2021
A casualty of the 2021 Victoria Lockdown, Wil King (ABC/Netflix's Why Are You Like This, Strangers in Between) and their real-life partner, award-winner Patrick Livesey (The Boy, George, Gone Girls) now finally bring Melbourne audiences Angus Cameron’s gripping new work; DIRT.
Directed by Bronwen Coleman (The Actors Studio, NYC), DIRT is a thrilling and seductive exploration of sexuality, solidarity, and persecution. A multi-award-winning production, it scooped four awards at the 2021 Adelaide Fringe Festival, two at the 2022 Fringe World, was nominated for Best Independent Production by The Adelaide Critics Circle Awards and has earned over a dozen five-star reviews.
Traversing the compelling course of one night, DIRT presents as a simple meet-cute - but all is not as it seems. When a Russian and an Australian walk into a bar in modern-day Moscow, they decide to drink and party together - but both need something from the other, and both have something to hide.

TAKE BACK - 2021
GREEN ROOM AWARDS WINNER 2022
It’s on your streets. It’s on your screens. It’s a group of women, femmes and gender diverse artists of colour speaking back to the racist patriarchal nonsense they experience with fire, wit and imagination.
This is TAKEBACK!, a new multi-platform arts project examining and dismantling the racialised gaze.
Presented by MAV in collaboration with Darebin FUSE Festival, TAKEBACK! brings performers, visual artists, writers, theatre-makers, cabaret stars, poets, lyricists, videographers and filmmakers together to create a fierce, full-bodied response to the everyday aggression of patriarchy and white supremacy.
Presented in March 2021 with both live performances and digital content.
