Who's Your Daddy? 

Look at the state of this place!

​

Four states are lorded over by foppish drag-king Daddies, all under the thumb of an elusive and shadowy figure known as Mummy.

Democracy is falling apart at the seams.

​

Young optimist Flung embarks on a nationwide quest to find his mother. A series of increasingly absurd catastrophes sees Flung team up with a group of radical leftists called the Common Dog Fucks (CDF). In the face of overlord Mummy and her ruling Daddies’ political clusterfuck, Flung and the CDF must get revolutionary to save their nation.

​

The State is a visually arresting, scathing commentary on the state of Australian politics. Phallic puppetry, glorious drag, and biting comedy sees the state of our nation dissected like never before.

Notable Reviews

"Not just a show that is entertaining and thought-provoking but also one that is clearly made by some of Perth’s finest theatre-makers.​" Theatre Reviews Perth

​

"The show is definitely a visual spectacle, and it was a treat to see so many intricate puppet pieces and talented performers manoeuvring them. An interesting show that politically-minded theatregoers will take something away from." Theatre Travels

​

"The State is a deeply layered caricature of Australian politics that paints an unflattering image of the politicians and the privileged elite who support them." WeekendNotes​​
