COSI

Written By Louis Nowra

Directed by Erin Howell

​

It's 1971 Melbourne, and Lewis, a recent university graduate, is looking for a paycheck. He has agreed to direct a play in an asylum as a form of therapy for the patients.

While balancing a cast of colourful patients, his strong willed girlfriend Lucy and his political extremist friend Nick, Lewis discovers a new side of himself, and through working with the patients gains a new perspective on madness, mayhem and reality, love and fidelity.

​

Opening night is imminent, they've lost a cast member, they've chosen an opera and no one speaks Italian... what could possibly go wrong?
