The Platypus by Francis Greenslade
Presented by Soft Tread Enterprises
Feb 11 - March 23
The Arch
Origin: AUS • South Australian Premiere
Genre: Theatre
Multiple genres, two actors, one black comedy.
The platypus is a strange creature, composed of odds and ends. A curiosity. A bit wrong somehow.
Just like this play.
A play about Richard, Jessica and the end of their relationship.
Written and directed by Francis Greenslade (Shaun Micallef’s Mad as Hell, Winners and Losers) and performed by John Leary (The Good Place, Upper Middle Bogan) and Rebecca Bower (Offspring, Wentworth), The Platypus is a genre-busting delight – an outrageously clever, wildly entertaining play about theatre, relationships and the roles we all play.
"This bold mix of genres delivers a witty, delightful, entertaining evening. Bower and Leary are wonderful." Stage Whispers
"Skilfully balances drama and comedy…masterfully handled by (its) seasoned performers" ArtsHub
