A Russian and an Australian walk into a bar. Neither are who they say they are.
The Victorian premiere of this smash-hit queer thriller, presented by and starring Wil King (ABC/Netflix’s Why Are You Like This, Strangers in Between) and their real-life partner, multi-award winner Patrick Livesey (The Boy, George, Gone Girls), DIRT traverses the exhilarating course of one night where two people meet, drink and party in modern-day Moscow. Both need something from the other, both have something to hide…
Written by Angus Cameron and directed by Bronwen Coleman (The Actors Studio, NYC), DIRT is a thrilling and seductive exploration of sexuality, solidarity and persecution that has already taken Adelaide and Perth by storm, amassing six awards and over 15 five-star reviews.
$1 from every ticket sold for this season of DIRT will be donated to the Moscow Community Center for LGBT+ Initiatives and Insight Ukraine.
This season is proudly supported by the City of Stonnington, Regional Arts Victoria through their Sustaining Creative Workers Initiative and Melbourne Fringe through their Cash for Creatives program.
