About the Show
FIFO is a theatre show about all things Fly In/Fly Out. Following one full ‘swing’
of 5 mining employees, ‘FIFO’ delivers a full spectrum of experience, leaving
audiences in uncontrollable laughter and teary reflection. The show offers a raw
insight into the individuals, couples and families working around a ‘FIFO’ roster.
As we follow the cast on their exploits, we gain insight into the cost-to-benefit
ratio of the FIFO lifestyle. Each character’s motivations and crutches are
revealed, leading to both intense conflict and mate-ship, in what seems to be a
very regular ‘swing’.
Suddenly a 5th employee enters the fray, and she’s here to shake… wait! It’s a
woman?!On site!?!? As the boys struggle to adjust to their new workplace
dynamic, the industry itself is interrogated. The site becomes the fore-front of
some serious allegations, and the very fabric of Australian society is put to the
test. Drama becomes allegory as hard truths are revealed about Australia’s long
and tangled relationship with mining, and we’re left with a decision to make: Is it
time to cut ties from this toxic relationship? Or can we rebuild the very
foundations of Australian Industry. Showcasing some of Perths most exciting
talent, ‘FIFO’ combines enthralling drama, explosive physical theatre and
touching personal stories to leave audiences with much and more to dig in to.
Proudly supported by the WA Government.
