A Moot Point

On the eve of a criminal trial, law student Otis kills time in a department-store fitting room while his mooting partner Isla helps him prepare to give evidence. As closing time nears, their comic sparring over outfits, legal arguments, and the detail of the case reveals that Otis is more involved than he first let on.

Set in present-day Perth, A Moot Point is a funny, dark and surprising new play about friendship, responsibility and the ways we avoid facing what we have done.

Brought to you by the company behind sitting, screaming featured in Summer Nights 2026. DIRECTOR: Lucy Clements; PLAYWRIGHT: Jack Kearney; PRODUCER: Emma Wright; STAGE & PRODUCTION MANAGER: Talia Zipper; SET/COSTUME DESIGNER: Aloma Barnes Siraswar; COMPOSER/SOUND DESIGNER: Johnny Yang; CAST: Harry Stacey, Emma Wright
