MULTIVERSE THEORY IN D

On the eve of her 30th birthday, Naomi has it all. A high-paying job, a good looking boyfriend and a great social life. But an unexpected run-in with an ex leaves her wondering – what if things had turned out differently?

This play with music combines theoretical physics and jazz. Naomi explores three different versions of her life:

1. The high-flying career woman.
2. The baby-wearing Earth Mother.
3. The sultry jazz singer.

As Naomi is catapulted from one version of her life to another, she begins to concoct a plan. What if she can cease to exist in one reality and take up residence in another? But not all is quite what it seems on the other side of the black hole…
Developed with The Ground Floor Program, Stages WA and presented in association with The Blue Room Theatre.

Reviews

“Whether it’s an audacious blending of Savage Garden’s To the Moon and Back and the standard Fly Me to the Moon, the Goo Goo Dolls’ Iris, Jewel’s You Were Meant for Me or No Doubt’s Just a Girl, Hutchison, Longhurst and the boys beat and belt them out, often to a thrilling effect that’s more than worth the price of admission.” – The West Australian

“[Erin] Hutchinson as the central figure to this play has buckets of energy and makes the entire room her own.” – Australian Stage

★★★★
“Ellandar presents another work that appeals on many levels, simply designed, cleverly written, and intelligently performed.” – ArtsHub Australia

“This poignant tale has some very moving moments, superbly acted by the two female leads. You can really feel their anguish. The characters were real, alive and instantly recognisable. Great work by a well-respected team.” – WA Theatre Reviews
