My Big Brother Sammy follows Jess and her older brother, Sammy, on the night of their Nan’s 70th birthday party. When Sammy receives a life-changing message, it forces Jess to confront their relationship in a whole new way . Bold, funny, and thought-provoking, this play dives into the highs and lows of sibling bonds, female empowerment, and complex issues of misogyny.
Smiles follows Makena, a shy and reserved introvert, and Ruby, a loud, unstoppable extrovert who can’t stand being alone. When Ruby crashes into Makena’s quiet world by moving into the room next door at their hostel, sparks fly. But as life throws unexpected challenges their way, the two opposites form an unlikely friendship that shakes things up—and changes everything.
My Big Brother Sammy + Smiles opens at Unity Theatre on Tuesday 4th – Wednesday 5th February, before touring to community and youth spaces.
