“My most courageous self, the best man that I’ll ever be, lived more than two decades ago during the first years of a horrific plague… I miss the man I was forced to become.” - Mark S. King, HIV/AIDS activist

 

Nick is charismatic. He’s generous. He’s searingly smart.

He also throws his toys a bit and who could blame him? Nick is one of our heroes, having spent his entire life fighting for other people’s futures. Today, while reaching for happiness, he’s being forced to reconcile a progressive present with the shadows of his own past. So he’s doing the dance of human resilience.

Beautiful, sexy and brave, this is adrenaline-charged drama from one of our most celebrated theatremakers Shane Bosher.

Winner of the Adam Award for Best NZ Play, EVERYTHING AFTER is a stirring call to live right now.
