Night Sweats
A beautiful, intimate, sleepless spectacle.
It’s a pyramid scheme, it’s a bit of beef between your teeth, it’s the crushing weight of being alive. Counting sheep can’t help you now. Spend a night with an insomniac, and see what’s keeping them up for yet another sleepless night.
A darkly playful rumination on mortality, privilege and perception, Night Sweats casts a frenetic internal monologue onto the stage; exposed and uncompromised in all its bizarre glory. A veritable feast of storytelling, song and visual magic, this is one man’s ode to the witching hour.
This work is the first official production from Perth based company Static Drive Co. Presented as part of award winning The Blue Room Theatre Summer Nights Fringeworld program, Night Sweats brings together emerging and established creatives to create an intimate spectacle, speaking to this age of short attention spans and uncertainty.

"Green is absolute perfection personified"

"Night Sweats is one of those shows that really grabs you right from the get go. It creeps under the skin and echoes in your brain long after you’ve left the dark shadowy silence of the theatre. "
