About this event
You know exactly what you’re doing. You’re just too scared to admit it.

Within the charged confines of an all-girls school, four friends spiral into dangerous relationships with blurred boundaries, as they navigate shifting power dynamics, desire, and the murky lines between agency and victimhood.

She Threaded Dangerously is an ensemble work that shifts between heightened naturalism and lyrical prose - shot through with unexpected, uneasy laughter. Bold and unflinching, it dwells in the grey areas, confronting audiences with urgent, layered questions about patriarchy, consent, and the ways our institutions fail those they claim to protect.

Why? Because most assaults are committed by someone the victim knows. Because young women who wear school uniforms are more likely to experience harassment in public spaces. Because in 2023, reported sexual assaults in NSW rose again - up 19% (the twelfth annual increase). Two-thirds of victims were under 18. Eighty-four percent knew their attacker.

She Threaded Dangerously doesn’t offer easy answers. But it dares to ask the hard questions - and finally have the conversations we’ve been avoiding for too long.
