The Platypus
Multiple genres, two actors, one black comedy, and possibly a platypus …
The Platypus is a strange creature. It’s composed of odds and ends, as though evolution got tired one afternoon and stopped paying attention to what it was doing. It seems wrong, strangely put together, a curiosity – just like this play about the messy end of a relationship.
Written and directed by well-known actor Francis Greenslade (Shaun Micallef’s Mad as Hell, Winners and Losers) and performed by John Leary (The Good Place, Glitch, The Letdown, Upper Middle Bogan) and Rebecca Bower (The Spooky Files, Offspring, Wentworth), The Platypus is a genre-busting delight – an outrageously clever, wildly entertaining play about theatre, relationships, and the roles we all play.
The Platypus is part of Brisbane Festival.
