Daisy Moon Was Born This Way

Book excerpt: "You don't wanna fit in. You wanna stand out. Way out. So far out they'd think you were from outer space." Bright eyed and eccentric 14-year-old Daisy Moon is President and Founder of the Bateman's Bay Little Monsters Fan Club. She holds her club meetings inside the dusty beachside bus stop on her front lawn. She's the club's only member. Her 18-year-old brother Noah couldn't be more different. An elite athlete on the cusp of cracking national competitions, his world falls apart when he's caught cheating on a time trial. The both dream big, but are stuck in a world too small. Set in a coastal town, this play draws on Australian iconography of the faded beachside surf club, but turns it on its head by drenching it with pop-culture and contemporary teen attitude.
