This ground-breaking production - adapted and directed by multi award-winning Kip Williams, Artistic Director of the acclaimed Sydney Theatre Company - delivers an explosive interplay of live performance and video in an astonishing collision of form. Sent to the island for 'behaviour modi cation', some of the pupils have staged a rebellion sparked by a singular dramatic event, while others simply wanted to keep their heads down and leave after they have gone through 'the programme'. This text will spark not only strong performances from teenagers, but also debates about the rights and wrongs in the script - it will see readers and performers asking the question 'what would I have done?'
