Stories of Love and Hate

Is hate the consequence when the things we love are under threat?

Drawing on an infamous local incident, Stories of Love and Hate interlinks personal stories about the fragile bonds that hold our society together. Created by Sydney’s gritty and distinctive Urban Theatre Projects with the communities in Bankstown and the Sutherland Shire, director Roslyn Oades set out to understand what happened on that summer’s day in Cronulla. Using a unique verbatim performance technique called Headphone Verbatim, performers wear headphones and speak along to a carefully edited audio script. The actors channel multiple characters and embody real-life stories, word for word, recreating every cough, stumble and quirk of human speech with authenticity.

Stories of Love and Hate was developed in association with Bankstown Youth Development Service.
