AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'The latest hilarious comedy from the pen of Australia’s most popular playwright, David Williamson. Three couples book themselves on the Queen Mary II to enjoy a luxury escape from reality, but instead find themselves trapped in the hellish world of designated dinner seating and B-grade cabaret. Amongst the endless stream of Dom Perignon and Tequila Sunrises, this holiday cruise unfolds into a bedlam of sexual tension and drowning relationships.

'CRUISE CONTROL takes the audience on a voyage of immense comedy and gripping tension. Guaranteed to make you laugh.' (Production summary)
