Savages - A drawn image of a red and blue sneaker lying in the mud on a black background, shoelaces dirty and splayed.

Savages

A school camp. Seven friends. A game, a campfire story, and a monster.

Ten years on, at the St. Nicholas of Myra Primary School reunion, six young adults discuss the events of that night. A decade has passed since last they spoke. Plied with nostalgia and with drink, they begin to tell each other a long-forgotten story. Savage children. A boy who slipped through the cracks. And a campfire story made madly, impossibly true.

Fresh off a 2024 Adelaide Fringe debut and subsequent creative development, 'Savages' is a new Australian play that asks us, what happens when the adults look away? And who is responsible for the children?
