PRODUCTION INFORMATION

A disparate group of seven work colleagues in a local government office struggle to hold onto their dreams, as they desperately attempt to prevent being completely paralysed by their workplace, and by themselves. The drudgery of daily office life shifts dramatically when a traumatic event in the department forces everybody to take a good hard look at themselves and to contemplate the possibility of change -- and to ponder how far they are prepared to go in order to achieve real happiness. 

Stop.Rewind was developed through Red Stitch’s INK program.

“Rewind is Red Stitch near its very best.” 

– Herald Sun -

“Following the success of Tom Holloway’s Red Sky Morning, Bubnic’s Stop. Rewind is another feather in the cap for the Red Stitch Writers program, and solid justification for its ongoing support.”

– The Age -

“Stop. Rewind is an unequivocal success. A triumph for young writer Melissa Bubnic, the cast and director, the Red Stitch Writers Program, and a heartily inspiring sample of what the stage does best. ” 

– Australian Stage -

“Savvy, sharp and finely acted, this is a play that works because it is so fabulously relatable. ”
