Super
Red Stitch Theatre 2025
If we are super, what is the cost?
Phoenix and Nel have superpowers. They take a lot of care and they do a lot of good. But when celebrity chef Rae turns up at their weekly support group meeting she turns their world upside down. As they transform from stealth crusaders to global superstars their powers ramp up exponentially. It’s amazing! Until it isn’t.
Hilarious, poignant and strange, Super examines our urge to do good and what happens when this effort comes up against the relentless forces of capitalism.
