\"So at one level The Sublime is a play about sport and sexual abuse, though that hardly does justice to its shimmering black magnificence of articulation.\" - Saturday Paper

What happens on the footy trip doesnt always stay on the footy trip. When things go wrong in Thailand, only three people know the whole story. Theres Liam, an NRL workhorse whos devoted to his code and his teammates; his older brother Dean, a top pick for the Brownlow, who tries desperately to clean up Liams mess; and Amber, a promising young athlete who rests uneasily on the edge of complicity and victimhood.

Cutting through the media-managed clichs of professional football, The Sublime plots an emotionally charged trajectory to expose human faults that go way beyond the sporting field.
