A beautifully challenging piece from ATYP is coming to Riverside Theatres

From the pen of award-winning playwright, Mary Anne Butler, comes an urgent and vital new work, Cusp, playing at Riverside Theatres on 31st March and 1st April.

Elvis wants Rosie, Rosie wants to escape, and Maddie doesn’t know what she wants, but it sure isn’t this. While Rosie balances the needs of community with her own life dreams, Elvis struggles to move away from a life of crime, and Maddie faces choices that come with an unexpected pregnancy.

Cusp juxtaposes the Northern Territory’s vast Top End landscape with the turbulent lives of three emerging adults as they swim against the tide of irrevocable change. Balancing choice and fate in a world where, as Elvis observes, “Some people just get better choices than others”.

ATYP’s Artistic Director, Fraser Corfield, directs a dynamic, young cast and asks the question, ‘how young people are supposed to move into the future, when the past keeps dragging them backwards?
