Nearing 30, Julian finds himself lost. He’s been standing still in life for some time... So, the universe conspires, creating this strange mystery, in order to get him moving again.

Everything seems connected. So what is really going on? Do you know? Do we? It is a question that’s impossible to answer. It could just be a lie after all

What we do know is that something will indeed be happening on November 10, 2009 at BATS Theatre. And what we do know is that the performances within those four walls are but a climax of a something – or some thing – that will reveal itself when the time is right. Before then… There will be noir. There will be a detective. Maybe a prostitute. The lonely streets of Wellington. A seedy nightclub. Oh, and definitely an Elephant hunt…
