37
The local footy team of the small coastal town of Cutting Cove have spent so long at the bottom of the ladder they might as well be welded to it. This year, a new hope arrives for the Currawongs: the Marngrook cousins, Sonny and Jayma. Nicknamed after the Aboriginal game that inspired AFL, their natural talent promises the team's best chance at bringing the flag home for the first time ever. What will come with that flag, however, is the cruel reminder of a far greater loss in this country's colonial history. Nathan Maynard's 37 serves up a searing critique of Australia's relationship with sport, set within the era of Adam Goodes' war cry and the country's ensuing debate on racism. In the land of the fair go, the rules of the game will always be fairer for some than others. Who decides these rules, when not everyone wants to play clean? Can you possibly ever win, when the system is rigged against you?'Throws a disturbing spotlight on the ways in which this country profits from Indigenous culture without giving back in return ... sharp and formidable' The Guardian 'So vitally relevant to us as a nation ... a truly funny, wildly entertaining piece of ensemble theatre ... with a proper sting in its tail' ArtsHub 'I walked away from the show in awe of Maynard's ability to apply history to the stage' The Conversation

Unfaithful Desires - Book Two
What to Expect in Book Two of Unfaithful DesiresA deeper, more intricate web of love, betrayal, and forbidden passion begins to unravel. When Janice discovers that Yolaine is now involved with another man-Aston-she confronts her friend, drawing painful parallels to Yolaine's former entanglement with Glen. That affair nearly destroyed Yolaine's marriage once before, and Janice fears history may be repeating itself. As accusations fly and old wounds are reopened, blame is laid bare. Janice pleads with Yolaine not to lose herself in yet another dangerous affair.But Yolaine refuses to be swayed-neither by Janice's warnings nor society's judgment. She has lived a life marked by loyalty, commitment, and quiet sacrifice, only to be repaid with heartbreak, betrayal, and a crushing sense of worthlessness. No longer. This time, she chooses desire over duty. She clarifies to Janice that she will not walk away if Aston wants to be with her. She will no longer abandon her happiness to meet the expectations of others.Yolaine confesses that what happened with Glen was a moment of weakness-a desperate need for comfort when Pierce, her husband, betrayed her trust. Though Pierce made amends and tried to be a better husband and father, it wasn't long before he slipped back into his old ways. And it was then that Yolaine realised she deserved more. A life where she is cared for, valued, and given the time and attention she had been denied for far too long.She knows how to balance her life with her daughter. And if Pierce could destroy their marriage, take her for granted, and betray her unwavering loyalty after years of devotion, then choosing to live life on her terms is a decision she no longer feels guilty for making.Janice still wants the best for Yolaine-even if they no longer see eye to eye.As we delve deeper into the past in Entwined In Time - Part II, the whole story of Yolaine and Glen is laid bare-their forbidden affair, shared desires, and the regrets that haunt them both. Meanwhile, in the present, Desire Untamed - Part II explores Yolaine's consuming connection with Aston-the man torn between his priesthood and his undeniable craving for her. A man who may offer her the love she's always longed for... or break her in a way no one else ever has.And where does Pierce fit into it all? Will he uncover the truth about her affair? And if he does, what will he do? Will he fight to regain Yolaine and repair the life he so carelessly shattered? Or will his sins and selfishness consume him before he ever has the chance?In Unfaithful Desires: Book Two, the tension builds, and the stakes have never been higher. Love, lust, and loyalty collide in a battle none can outrun.One decision. One moment. And everything will change.The truth is coming-and when it does, it will leave nothing but destruction.Yolaine looked forward to living boldly and provocatively, embracing life on her terms. She sought places where she was wanted, loved, and free to be herself.
