About the show
One day, Ruth wakes up to find that the world has changed. She tries to find her way home in a city that is now both familiar and strange, and encounters people who are almost as lost as she is.
With mounting horror, she begins to understand what has happened to her… With the audience experiencing Ruth’s journey while seated on a revolving platform, Perfect Stranger asks: how can we find a way to belong in a new world?
Perfect Stranger is written by NIDA alumna and renowned Australian writer of stage, fiction, radio, screen, and theatre Hilary Bell, and directed by award-winning director and choreographer Kate Champion, the founder of Force Majeure and director for productions for Belvoir, Sydney Theatre Company, STCSA, English National Opera and many others.
