About This Festival

Backyard Theatre Collective & Your Mouth Collective present
PLAYER 2
by Tremayne Gordon

"I guess we finally figured out twin telepathy."

Travis is trying to deal with the loss of his twin. His mum wants him go to group therapy. Facebook tells him that time will heal all wounds. Instead, Travis continues to develop an unhealthy obsession with papier mache. Parallel to Travis' story is grief counsellor, John Stevenson, who is taking his class through his four step program on how to deal with the loss of a loved one. 'Player 2' utilises dramatic narrative, audience participation, puppetry and chalk to explore the bond between siblings.

Backyard Theatre Collective’s work has been described as “the most impressive pieces of independent theatre that I have seen in my life.” Josh Lyons, Anywhere Festival Reviewer

“Gordon’s writing is fun, witty, sharp, but most importantly it is genuine.” Rhumer Diball, Downstage Discernments
