Taz vs The Pleb

Set in the small fictional town of Turneybull, in rural NSW, two lovable 16 year-old misfits - besties Taz and Shontelle - decide to take democratic measures into their own hands by hatching a plan to steal to steal all the postal surveys during Australia’s 2017 same sex marriage plebiscite.

Presented by multi-award winning theatre makers Rogue Projects, Kasia Vickery’s debut comedy Taz vs The Pleb is a fast-paced heist parody for ages 14+, jam-packed with high-octane action adventure as Taz and Shontelle dodge a revolving door of wacky townsfolk in a race to rig the survey.

It is a colourful celebration of queer friendship, community and grassroots revolution, brought to life by Sydney's next generation of theatre makers.

Because sometimes you have to break the rules to change them.
