Australia’s first killer musical. An all dancing, all singing, comedy drama.

County Court magistrate, Queenie, is about to hang up her wig and go shopping. Burnt out after years of presiding over the worst criminal cases and busting through the toughest perspex ceilings. But when Queenie is promoted to Supreme Court Judge, she jumps at the chance to pay off the credit cards and snag that house in Watego Bay. Not realising she is about to do battle with drug lord, Terry Biggs and a wave of underworld killings that shatter the lives of ordinary folk and Queenie herself.

Demise – A Series of Tragic Tales

Directed by Nicky Fernandes

Step into the unsettling yet captivating world of “Demise,” a riveting collection of four short plays by Natasha Daly that masterfully blend dark humour with the exploration of trauma and tragic endings. Each story, set against different decades—from the vibrant 1940s to the anxious present—unfolds raw narratives brimming with emotional tension and unexpected wit.

“Sweet Comic Valentine,” set in a 1940s speakeasy bar, a charming hitman grapples with his conscience as he falls for an innocent woman, highlighting the absurdity of love in a life steeped in darkness, where laughter and horror coexist.

“Reasons Why You Should Eat Me,” set in 1950s atop a snowy mountain,  presents a desperate survival scenario that combines morbid humor with the grim realities faced by two plane crash survivors, showcasing how humor can emerge even in dire circumstances.

“Cancel My Appointments,” set in a 1970s pyschedelic doctor’s office, dives into a man’s existential crisis, where he navigates his unhappiness with a comedic lens, revealing the absurdities of life’s pressures and expectations.

Finally, “Fishing,” set in a contemporary apartment, serves a chilling twist, interspersed with sharp, dark humor that uncovers the sinister sides of seemingly innocuous interactions.

Daly’s writing invites the audience to confront the complexities of human nature, where humour often becomes a coping mechanism against the backdrop of despair. 

⚠️ Content Warning: Mature Themes

Demise explores mature and potentially distressing content, including themes of mental health struggles, trauma, existential despair, violence, and death, all framed through the lens of dark humour.

Each play presents emotional and psychological challenges that may be triggering for some audience members.

While humour is a powerful tool in these stories, it is often used to highlight or cope with difficult realities.

Viewer discretion is advised.
