Overview of this event
Discover the debut play from local playwright and director Daniel Cottier at the heart of Newcastle's cultural scene. Occasional Combustible Disaster tells the story of Freddy Ambit, a teenager facing a life-changing decision just days before finishing his HSC and turning 18. Between family arguments, unexpected reunions, and a secret that could change everything, Freddy's story is both hilarious and heart-wrenching.
Experience a uniquely Newcastle production that blends humour, heartbreak, and the chaos of family life. With Daniel Cottier at the helm - CONDA-nominated director for Punk Rock - this play promises sharp writing, compelling performances, and a glimpse into the local theatre scene at its finest.
Perfect for theatre lovers and visitors looking for an authentic cultural experience in Newcastle. Don't miss this chance to see a homegrown story brought to life on the Civic Theatre stage.
