Development

Miller and director John Sheedy interviewed over 500 Western Australian teens for the play, asking about their day-to-day lives and drawing from that many of the stories of the play.[1][2][3]

Plot

The plot of the story focuses on five teenagers and their online and offline relationships.[4] The story does not follow a linear narrative and is more a collection of short stories with a shared message than one complete story.[1]

Performances

Dress rehearsal, February 2012.

Under the direction of John Sheedy, the show was first performed as part of the 2012 Perth International Arts Festival.[5] It was later performed in the State Theatre Centre of Western Australia in the Underground studio.
