Audition Notice > How To Disappear Completely And Never Be Found

Hoy Polloy presents the Australian première of
How To Disappear Completely And Never Be Found
by Fin Kennedy
Directed by Paul King
Overview
Winner of the prestigious 2005 John Whiting Award for New Writing, Fin Kennedy’s extraordinary work presents the nightmarish journey of a young business executive as he is stripped of everything that made him who he was. Part surreal black comedy, part profound human tragedy, the play hurtles toward a compelling climax as it asks what really makes us who we are in the 21st century.
