The Big Oil Alliance is on a charm offensive to save their billion dollar industry while appearing to be a part of the climate solution. Through boardroom jockeying, revealing interviews, an anti-wind commercial and a PSA for a crisis line serving beleaguered oil execs, the Big Oil Alliance fights for your love at the expense of your future.

Love. Revenge. Rebellion.

Dark Arcadia is a story about love. A story about revenge. And a story about the validity (or not) of taking justice into our own hands.

Examining the colliding worlds of rebelling teenagers and the adults charged with their care, inspired by world events and gender politics, this gothic fantasy is the next project from the universe of the internationally award-winning Shakespeare Republic, written and directed by Australian actor/writer/director, Sally McLean.

Dark Arcadia … something wicked this way comes …

ABOUT THE SERIES

Using Shakespeare’s original text, we meet seventeen different characters from seven different plays over a 24 hour period, set in the microcosm of an Australian high school, exploring power, relationships, the idea of outrage culture, #FakeNews and the Elizabethan equivalent of a Grimm’s faerietale.

Primarily utilising the perspective of Generation Z, Dark Arcadia features some of Shakespeare’s most iconic characters played by a range of talented established and emerging actors. With a focus on female, culturally diverse, disabled and LGBTQI+ (including trans) talent, using his undiluted, original words, we journey into human relationships and their consequences with a touch of magic realism and a dash of food for thought.

This digital series creates a cohesive world built from a range of Shakespeare texts, threading together scenes from several of Shakespeare’s plays, as written, to create a multiple story strand structure set in the 21st Century.
