Temperatures, sea levels, and fascists are rising. Retreat to a burrow to train for survival.

Between training cycles and supply runs, Alex and Cam debate the values they can and cannot leave behind as their fight for survival intensifies. In an underground burrow, the two friends confront their proximity to danger, ill health, and their pursuit for mutually assured survival.

Written by Jamila Main (‘Benched’, ‘Pillow Talk’, ‘Butterfly Kicks’), ‘How to Eat Rabbit’ destroys the myth of individualism and unites a majority disabled creative team.

‘How to Eat Rabbit’ (Commendation, Griffin Theatre Award, 2021; Merit Award, State Theatre Company of South Australia, 2019) is a dark comedy for your existential crisis.

How would you eat rabbit?

‘How to Eat Rabbit’ is supported by Creative Australia, City of Melbourne, Darebin Arts, and Dukkana.
