Sevenfold Theatre Company presents the sketch comedy show Law and Order PTV from May 12-15 at The Toff in Town, 252 Swanston St, Melbourne.
“The guy with his feet on the seats. The woman who litters on the train. The teenager who fails to produce a valid concession card. “These are just a few of the violent offenders our brave authorised officers encounter on trains and trams every day.
“In the Victorian public transport system, fare evading offences are considered especially heinous. In Melbourne, the dedicated detectives who investigate these vicious felonies are members of an elite squad known as the Authorised Ticket Inspectors. These are their stories.”
Sevenfold Theatre Company will combine dance, music, comedy, and metro announcements in this public transport experience. Just don’t forget to touch on.
This season will see new officers boarding the train, with Kyle Cuthbert, Kiara Ariza Stellato Pledger, Zoë Harlen, Sian Crowe, Tam Dahmen, Tom Costigan and Asher Griffith-Jones.
Fae O’Toole and Zachary Dixon met whilst studying at Federation University Arts Academy, and have been collaborating as writer and director, respectively, since the show was first performed in 2019.
Zac says of the show: “Fae … has written an intricate, ridiculous, and hilarious script…[it] is a love letter to Dan Andrews and the tragic farce that Victoria’s Public Transport System can be.”
Sevenfold Theatre Company is an ensemble of artists who aim to nurture an artistic network by seeking young artists, directors and writers to build a community that produces and elevates new works and adaptations “
