''Australian Gothic Tales' is a new theatre showcase exploring the concealed lives of six troubled souls across red-dirt towns and gritty inner cities.

'Spanning dark comedy, romance, thriller and fable, this collection of six stories peers into the complex depths of distinctly Aussie characters and the wounds and worlds they carry within.

'There's a jaded 'failed' artist working on an explosive new project; a heartbroken veteran returning home after 20 years; a troubled tram driver visited by 'angels'; a regretful boxer reflecting on his choices; a pious sheep farmer stranded in a flood, and a grieving daughter fighting local miners.'
