Tender Napalm at Signature Theatre

A young couple face an unnamed catastrophe. They wind their love back to its beginnings through a fantastical, erotic world of serpent slayings, monkey wars, alien abductions and a shipwrecked paradise. Dangerously and absolutely, they dream and dance themselves into the secret places of love and desire, back to the ecstasy of their first kiss.

Philip Ridley's daring new play is like no other. It boldly traverses the delicate and the brutal and maps the journey from first attraction to consuming devotion. This La Boite and Brisbane Festival production draws together a sensational creative team, including La Boite Artistic Director David Berthold and Australian Dance Theatre Artistic Director Garry Stewart, truly one of the world's great contemporary dance makers.

If you think you know love, think again.
