John O'Donovan's darkly comedic romantic drama follows Mikey and Casey, two gay young men marooned atop a rooftop in County Clare, Ireland, hiding from the Gardai after robbing a service station. Presented as part of the Melbourne Fringe Festival at the Meat Market Stables, this two-hander play required a striking set design that could heighten the tension between the characters while navigating the challenges of a shared venue.

Reviews

"Casey Harper-Wood's set design provides a dangerously three-dimensional playground for the actors and ensures they are never on a solid footing. The standalone structure was an excellent choice for this piece giving us a slanting suburban island on which to maroon the young lovers."

— Australian Stage

"Casey Harper-Wood’s creation of a suburban roof is a fantastic piece of design that the actors clearly relish playing on."
