Australian Rules Football fanatics Angus and Sharon Lark raised Andy to become the greatest player in the history of the sport - but when the nation is recklessly divided and allegiances become a matter of life and death, their son is consumed by the fatal glory of The Game. This is the story of Andy Lark's forbidden and turbulent romance with the unorthodox captain of the other team - the elusive Shane Fowler. From the inception of Aussie Rules in the bush, we follow the treacherous history and future of Australia culminating in the 2050 Grand Final when Andy's love is torn across borders and guernseys.

Written and performed by Passion Pop Music (Leon Bishop, Ben Anderson, Shea Gallagher, Thomas Byrne and Reginald Ashman), performers of the Leonard Cohen cabaret show Death of an Adelaidies Man - we will bring you on a whirlwind of emotional, high-octane dark comedy and toe-tapping original songs of lament, ecstasy and grief. Learn the remarkable history of Australian Rules Football and experience the tragic beauty of Andy and Shane's passion from a chance encounter in a night-club to footy-themed BDSM and finally in somber reflection from a luxurious rehabilitation clinic.
