1 Street Liviu Monsted , 2017 single work drama

1 Passing Time Liviu Monsted , 2015 single work drama

'Passing Time is set in a street that could be anyone’s; the characters are all lost and find they have little to live for.

1 A Broken Law Liviu Monsted , 2014 single work drama

'Bringing the comic philosophy of a farce back into Australian theatres, our vision is a fast paced invigorating play featuring twenty plus absurd characters all placed in one courtroom. In Australia there is a law that states that if a person is hurt on your property they have a right to sue you. ‘A Broken Law’ discusses the absurdity of this law.

'A Broken Law is a court case from hell; a comical farce in one act that looks at the absurdity of the law and pokes fun at it from every possible angle. Join Richard Head as he tries to win a case for his life against an egotistical lawyer and a slightly mad judge in a case where the 'norm' is literally smashed through the window and the insane holds the gavel. This is a play that will make you laugh from the prosecution to the verdict, filled with some of the craziest characters you will ever meet. It’s an 'Alice in Wonderland' like play where everyone knows what’s happening except the main protagonist.'

1 Not a Word Liviu Monsted , 2013 single work drama

'Not A Word is a dark, twisted comedy-drama about class systems and how language among other things can affect your placing in the world. It follows the lives of the low class street kids called The Pack, the middle class couple and the high class socialite snob. The main character, a bogan, who is rude, swears obscenely and shows disregard for others, that is until one day a strange event occurs that will question his placing in the world forever. The play acts out as a morality/Jacobean play with each character playing an important part in changing him for the better.

'The play asks: Can you be born into a lifestyle you didn’t deserve and more importantly, is it possible to change? Is our character measured by our class or our very sense of being?'
