Press Release
Sydney

Heather and Christopher have been married for a decade. Ten years of books, sci-fi, and experimental cooking. Life is good, or as good as they should expect it to be.

Then Christopher meets David.
And David meets Heather.

A queer take on the romantic comedy genre, Gravity is the story of what can happen when you think you’re satisfied, only to discover that your story is still evolving.

Framing the pan-romanticism and polyamory frontier through humour and heartfulness, Kentucky-born playwright Bradford Elmore’s debut work is a deeply personal, funny, and unapologetic story of one person’s need to understand who they are, and what love looks like when gender is only part of the question.

The work was previously selected and presented for the 2019 Mardi Gras Playlist event curated by Director Kate Gaul, where it was presented as a staged reading. Gravity was also awarded an Art in Isolation Residency with Sydney Fringe, and was on stage at Gasworks Arts Park in 2020 when it was a finalist for the National Queer Playwriting Award.
