Compromise brings together eight of Aotearoa’s brightest young playwrights to create a unique one-act anthology play that explores the art of collaboration. Each fifteen-minute segment is co-written by a pair of playwrights with little prior connection, resulting in four distinct yet interconnected stories that navigate the theme of compromise both on and off the page.

Directed by Lia Kelly, with a creative process that mirrors the play’s content, "Compromise" is a dynamic, provocative, and entertaining hour of theatre, showcasing fresh voices, bold ideas, and the challenges and rewards of artistic negotiation.
