tasty independent theatre
in development
INTERNAL
INTERNAL is a unique musical theatre experience that leans on the whimsical charm of puppetry to address the realities of life at the bottom of the medical pile. Inspired by the irreverent humour of Avenue Q and a modern response to the dark, seventies satire of House of God, this show follows three interns as they navigate their first year as doctors.
"I don't know what I'm doing
... but it doesn't feel like saving lives."
Balancing humour and humanity, INTERNAL explores the struggles and triumphs of these young professionals as they grapple with identity, cultural challenges, and the daunting journey of embarking on a medical career. Of course, expect the obligatory foreign object joke—because, well, it's medicine. But this story is not just about the rigours and quirks of Hospital Land. It is about a deeper quest for meaning, contextualised by the high-stakes world of tertiary healthcare and the systematic challenges faced by women in contemporary workplaces.

Avenue Q
Trifle's last production was AVENUE Q, presented as part of the 2015 Melbourne International Comedy Festival. (Yes, it's been a while.) We thought it was fabulous, but don't take our word for it. Here are some nice reviews we received.
