Rosie wants to escape. Maddie doesn’t know what the hell she wants, but it sure isn’t this. While Rosie weighs up the needs of community with her own dreams, Elvis juggles a life of crime with a tougher path on the straight-and-narrow, and Maddie faces life as a single parent. CUSP juxtaposes the Northern Territory’s vast landscape with the turbulent lives of three emerging adults swimming against the tide of irrevocable change. Mary Anne Butler’s deeply funny play throws a spotlight on the warmth and humanity that keep us balanced in a world where, as Elvis puts it: ‘Some people just get better choices than others'." -- Publisher website ER -
