autobahn in Adelaide
pantsguys Productions present Neil Labute’s autobahn.
After a sell out season in Sydney, the show is getting packed up and flown off to Adelaide for the 2012 Adelaide Fringe Festival.
pantsguys’ autobahn is a series of five vignettes that take place within the painfully hilarious confines of a car. Witnessing a break up, a kidnapping and even a confession of infidelity, audiences are confronted with biting reality and the viscera of humanity. Inside that moving vehicle you are trapped, you are isolated and there is nowhere to run. Conversations cannot be avoided, the truth cannot be hidden, we are exposed.
Neil LaBute is the first dramatist since David Mamet and Sam Shepard – since Edward Albee, actually – to mix sympathy and savagery, pathos and power.
- Donald Lyons, NEW YORK POST
This painfully perplexing setting, together with LaBute’s sharp and comical writing, make autobahn a boisterously funny show, exploring the lives and relationships of those people you spy in the bubble next to you as you’re waiting for the lights to change.
pantsguys are thrilled to remount this lively black comedy under the exciting direction of one of the hottest new faces in theatre, Adelaide’s very own Dale March (The Removalists and The White Guard for STC).
