'The Government has given us eternal youth, and we should be eternally grateful.
'In the not too distant future, coming-of-age is a little different. Thanks to a fantastic scientific discovery, wisdom no longer comes with age. Wisdom now comes with a strict pharmaceutical regimen, and it’s all government mandated.
'But an idyllic, strictly regulated existence free of the shackles of aging isn’t all it’s cracked up to be. When side effects start to spread and citizens become aware of the lengths the state will go to maintain order, the only answer is revolution.' (Production summary)
Wisdom was first produced by Queensland Theatre as part of The Scene Project performed throughout Queensland from August to October, 2020.
