I Love You Bro

By Adam Cass

10 February 2009 – 28 February 2009 Tower Theatre

Malthouse Theatre, Three to a Room,

Theatre Collaboration

Johnny is a digital chameleon, able to change who he is with the stroke of a key and the click of a mouse. A skill he puts to use in an online chatroom. Posing as a girl, under the screenname AlbaJay, Johnny stumbles across someone he knows from his real life, a boy from school, MarkyMark. The two begin a digital relationship, but as the fictional world he has created starts to collide with reality, Johnny must do whatever it takes to make sure MarkyMark loves him. Based on true events, I Love You, Bro is a tale of love and deceit in a digital world.

This production is the winner of the 2007 Melbourne Dramatists Emerging Playwright Award.
