THE WAY THINGS WORK

About the show

VICTORIAN PREMIERE Corruption. Politics. Loyalty. Fear. Mate. Brother. Ally. Don’t look away. The media are savaging him, a Royal Commission has just been launched, and Patrick Barlow is in it neck-deep. At least he has his mate Dench to count on… Multi award-winning writer/director Aidan Fennessy’s dynamic and topical play is a darkly compelling, bitingly funny exploration of the relationship between masculinity and the thirst for power … in whatever echelon you might happen to inhabit.
