PROTEIN

by Darby James

midsumma.org.au | autonomousinventions.com


The messy musings of a queer vegan.

Protein makes a sexy, sarcastic, soy-tastic return by popular demand. One hour of non-stop chaos in the life of a messy millennial searching for love and morality in modern adulthood.

In the midst of an identity crisis, queer vegan Charlie decides to give up pornography and hit the gay dating scene. Sex proves to be a disastrous distraction from self-loathing, and they soon realise that being emotionally unhinged and cynical makes them a difficult romantic candidate. Also, their pet goldfish Bob is horribly depressed.

Cameron Steens - Assistant Director & Sound Design

Contributed to the reimagining of this text, with an entirely new production. As the vision for the project expanded, the need for a dedicated sound design became necessary, which I gladly took on in addition to my original role.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Theatre Matter - “Intelligent direction and pacing by Domenica Garrett (with assistance by Cameron Steens), always keep viewers’ interest and investment on point as well.” “here’s hoping a repeat season is considered very soon.”

Theatre First - "A wild ride, both hilarious and poignant..."
