Super Discount

(Sydney Theatre Company)
A joint production from Back to Back Theatre, Sydney Theatre Company and Malthouse Theatre.

'Super Discount' is a one act play featuring six performers five of whom are intellectually and/or physically impaired. The sixth is self described as an 'actor' who alternates between behaving without impairment challenging the others and at other times behaving as though he possessed an impairment.

The performers act out an audition for the players to play the roles of superheroes and villains.

It is a challenging work, confronting at times.

The joy of the performers' achievement at the conclusion of the work is engaging.
