Written by Raimondo Cortese
Directed by Georgina Naidu

Featuring Bachelor of Fine Arts (Acting) and Bachelor of Fine Arts (Production) students.

Roulette, written by Raimondo Cortese, consists of twelve plays, set in twelve different locations, and are based on themes drawn from an ancient Chinese cosmology called the 12 Branches of Life: desire, travel, fortune, self-expression, marriage, responsibility, health, class and rank, law, business, children, and friendship. The plays focus on the chance meetings of two people in varying situations and provide a revealing mosaic of human interaction across a range of emotional landscapes.
