1 3 Know No Cure Adam Broinowski , 2007 single work drama 'It is the age of extinction. A mad sailor lost in the lands in-between searches for sanctuary. A man with no memory sells faith in the departure lounge where he lives. A Machiavellian deal for the antidote to a poison we have all imbibed. Tackling some of the big issues facing societies today, the play uses metaphors of medical technology and its quest for immortality, the destruction of the world's habitat, and the issues of private versus public in celebrity-distracted society.

1 Hotel Obsino Adam Broinowski , 2003 single work drama

'An old gothic hotel houses a number of extreme prophets, each of whom inhabits a self-created delusion which makes life inside the rotting walls real. A naive outsider comes to the hotel, searching to bridge the gap between rich and poor. But he is soon disillusioned. As distrust breeds paranoia, he finds himself trapped - and comes to understand the real reason he is there.

"Hotel Obsino" goes beyond boundaries of comic and tragic, text-based and physical theatre, real and unreal, to a place where categories no longer work. In presenting often cruel, distasteful, dirty images it cracks satisfied complacency to invite the audience back into the strenuousness of theatre.' Source: www.ozscript.org/ (Sighted 05/03/2009).
