Intersection 2018: Chrysalis
BY 2017 National Studio Writers
31 January - 17 February 2018
A collection of short plays written by the most exciting young playwrights in the country.
Nothing beats a place that’s ours. Nothing can.
Intersection is the meeting point for a collection of short plays written by the most exciting young playwrights in the country. A mad road map of young lives travelling very different routes, the production offers a unique snapshot of modern Australia. Critically acclaimed in its first incarnation, we return again to explore the excitement, terror, banality and electricity of being 17.
‘ATYP is a critical part of the national theatre ecology. Intersection reflects Australia back at us, explaining in young people’s own words what their concerns are, what their hopes are, and what we can expect from our artists in the future.’
