Comedy. Bare-all. Chaos.
No internet. No intruders. No clothes.
Far from the trappings of civilisation, a group of nudist baby boomers have created their very own off-grid bush eco-paradise. An unseasonably hot summer approaches, but no worries! They’ve got enough preserves, pickles, and Fleetwood Mac to get them through it… probably.
Enter Evangeline—a Gen Z eco-influencer, on the run from something terrible. She’s loud. She’s over-sensitive. And she wants to stay.
Set in a time of unforgiving drought, with hot winds foretelling worse times ahead, an all-nude, all-legendary cast takes you on an hilarious journey of hope and delusion in the face of disaster.
Playwright Ang Collins (Blueberry Play, Spewy) makes her mainstage debut with a work of glittering comic absurdity. Teaming up with Artistic Director Declan Greene (The Lewis Trilogy, Sex Magick), Naturism takes an irreverent and deeply messy look at just how much heat our squishy, naked little bodies can take.

Naturism was commissioned through the Incubator – NSW Theatre (Emerging) Fellowship in collaboration with Griffin Theatre Company in 2020. It was subsequently developed with the support of the Griffin Studio Workshop donors. The development was supported by Belvoir St Theatre and was supported through a residency at Theatre and Performance Studies, the University of Sydney. The premiere production of Naturism is supported by Griffin’s Production Partner program.
