32 Lavender Close

“Finding a flatmate on the internet is risky business. But desperate times call for awkward situations. When Carly moves into Melo's flat unexpectedly, the two twentysomethings embark on a journey of figuring out their mental health, sexuality, finances, careers and mysterious vaginal discharge in the bathroom of 32 Lavender Close. An ode to a time of uncertainty in which you are neither mature enough to not make the sex joke, nor cool enough to impress your 15-year-old brother. For the first time at National Arts Festival, and as the result of Theatre Arts' Emerging Director Bursary, Andi Colombo presents: 32 Lavender Close. Keep your friends close, but your flatmate closer. “
