A vision of military conflict as testing-ground for English values.

Bill is sustained by his sense of culture and an improving world. The only thing the human race needs to do is learn. When he meets a person who embodies this idea, he naturally likes them. Especially if his wife doesn't. Set at the end of the 1950s, this title explores the comfort, hopes and fragility of family life in a new Sydney suburb.

Talks about people trying to connect in a landscape of disconnection, the power of desire, and being alone late at night. Combining hypnotic language with arresting dance theatre, this work salutes the underbelly of urban life.
