Versus
It's Gerald's birthday and he doesn't want to go to his party-everything is just too much. So maybe you could help him with breakfast? Can someone else walk his dog? 

Gerald needs people. We all do.

The day becomes increasingly impossible, from the day’s first inhale, Gerald and the audience are on a ride through the horror, surreality, grief, and joy of being alive and everyone gets to come to the party at the end. Cake included. 

VERSUS: FEEL ALIVE AGAIN 

Versus by Adam Lazarus and Guillermo Verdecchia is being developed in Residency at The Theatre Centre and is an unflinching and theatrical examination of contemporary daily life; a laugh-out-loud experience that cannot be recreated outside of the theatre, an offer of connection to yourself and to others, that is totally ad-free.

Partnering with The Theatre Centre as we move towards premiering in November 2026, this workshop will bring together our incredible team of artists to build and create including: 

Adam Lazarus (Co-writer and performer)
Guillermo Verdecchia (Co-writer and co-director)
Ann-Marie Kerr (Co-director), 
Gillian Gallow (Set, Costume & Props), David Mesiha (Sound & Projection), Michael Kras (Illusions & Stage Magic), 
Michelle Ramsay (Lighting), Alexis Eastman (Creative Producer)

Versus also has some incredible friends supporting creation including: Geoff Sobelle, Jecca Barry, Megan Leahy, and Lola Landekic.
