'Meet Alice Anderson: Mechanic. Trailblazer. Entrepreneur. Founder of Australia’s first all-girl garage!

'It’s 1920s Melbourne—society reels from the aftermath of World War I, women’s fashion sets startling trends and the city hums with the music of the motorcar. Meanwhile, one small woman defies convention and makes her mark…

'Sparked by historical events, Garage Girls shines a light on Alice Anderson’s short but eventful life, in a world on the precipice of change.'  (Publication summary)

1 y separately published work icon SAAM Madelaine Nunn , 2022 Fortitude Valley : Playlab , 2024 27896183 2022 single work drama

'Claire’s having trouble connecting… IRL that is. Enter SAAM: A Social Ally Android Machine – her ‘shortcut to friendship.’ Configured based on her digital behaviour and social media profiles, SAAM’s an expert at connection – which is great, because Claire’s birthday is next week and the RSVPs are sitting at a grand total of zero. Not great. With SAAM’s help, Claire’s circles are growing. The foodies, the handballers, even the SRC kids start to invite her to things. Nothing stands in her way, except of course her crippling social anxiety.'(Production summary)

1 The Chapel, the Fire and the Dead Cat Madelaine Nunn , 2022 single work drama

'Smoke and ash. Wood and earth. You smelt it before you saw it. When the cursed Chapel on the hill burns to the ground, the authorities have some questions. Their suspects: the high school students seen there that night.

'An act of terror? Work of the divine? Or merely an accident? The Chapel, the Fire and the Dead Cat flashes between torch-lit glimpses of teenage misdemeanours. Piece by piece we are drawn deeper into the mystery, getting closer and closer to… something… and that something might just be supernatural.'

1 y separately published work icon Summer at Suspended Stone Camp Madelaine Nunn , 2021 Fortitude Valley : Playlab , 2024 26412276 2021 single work drama

'A mysterious new adventure comedy for the whole family!

'When people-pleaser Claudia Thorogood finds herself in hot water after an unfortunate accident leaves her principal with ten broken bones and a shiny new electric wheelchair, she is sent to Suspended Stone Camp, a place for ‘Difficult, Disobedient and Different Teen Delinquents’.

'It’s definitely not how she pictured her summer…Under the guidance of Vickie, her authoritarian team leader, Claudia and the other camp inmates are driven to a cabin in the bush with nothing but a backpack, a sleeping bag and a packet of contraband burger rings. The misfit group think it’s a blessing when Vickie’s late from break, until it gets dark and she’s still not back.

'Abandoned, restless and fearing they’ll die alone without ever having a hot meal again, they start hatching plans of survival. It doesn’t take long for things to go from bad to worse to just plain creepy.'

But as things and people start to change around her, she is suddenly and unceremoniously confronted with a world she wasn’t ready for.'
