The 2020 list of finalists:
Home Fires Burning by Maeve Marsden
Ruth and Judith are breaking up, but they’ll be damned if they let their Sunday family lunch tradition go. A lesbian divorce farce, Home Fires Burning satirises society’s obsession with the nuclear family, via food fights, fierce debates and overpriced cheese.
Butterfly Kicks by Jamila Main
Butterfly Kicks follows three teenage girls as they experience queer self discovery and first love, fuelled by teenage adrenaline, salt water, and underage vodka.
Gravity by Bradford Elmore
Bradford Elmore’s semi-autobiographical debut play is a poignantly unapologetic story about one man’s need to understand his bisexuality, and the ways love moves us when gender is only part of the question.
New Wave by Margot Morales Tanjutco
Set in all-girls suburban high school, New Wave is a coming-of-age, rock-fuelled comedy, about good ol’ fashioned rebellion and the first love you might meet along the way.
