Shore Break | Brink Productions

The poetic, gut-wrenching, and electric debut play by Chris Pitman, Shore Break, is a meditative solo theatre work about an isolated man looking to the ocean for answers. 

The waves are about to break. A man sits with his surfboard, observing the water. He remembers moments shared with people. Laughs. But is alone. Just him, the surf, and memories of a distant time, giving comfort, causing pain. A patch work of story-telling, poetry, and haunting performance, this new monodrama from one of Adelaide’s most esteemed performers is a touching theatrical experience.

Simple and raw, addressing the search for human connection and meaning, in a life filled with rejection and regret, Shore Break elegantly depicts the vulnerability of masculinity through a tour de force performance, sharp writing, and an emotional sucker-punch you won’t see coming.

Presented by Brink Productions in association with Adelaide Festival Centre and State Theatre Company South Australia.
