Engine is a highly charged theatrical event about family, friends and cars - of fixing what's broken and celebrating life.
It's a month after Stevie's car crash and 'Grumpop' has lost a grandson and Natasha has lost a brother. What really happened that night? Natasha wants to remember Stevie by finishing the project car he was working on before the crash. Grumpop is a retired mechanic and he could help but he just wants to put it all behind him.
Bob Baines (Home and Away) and Melanie Zanetti (The Little Dog Laughed) are joined on stage by young performers from Brisbane State High School, St Laurence's College and Clairvaux Mackillop College adding dynamic physicality, character and unique perspectives on young people in cars... It's a funny and moving roller-coaster ride that will break your heart and mend it.
"Engine is a stroke of genius." Janis Balodis and Julian Louis "have created yet another masterpiece of theatre and the cast of two have left an indelible imprint on my psyche..." - Artshub
