Somewhere beyond the Nullabor…

Inspired by true events, FIFO is a gripping new drama that explores the lives of fly-in fly-out workers, forming a subtle allegory for Australia’s long and complicated relationship with the resource sector.

As a new female worker begins her first swing, the site becomes the epicenter of serious allegations, and the very fabric of Australian society is pushed to breaking point. What unfolds is a piercing examination of power, silence, and a system that underpins the nation.

A uniquely Australian story, FIFO showcases some of Western Australia’s finest theatre talent. Blending sharp comedy, explosive physical theatre, and deeply personal storytelling, FIFO is bold, confronting, and unexpectedly funny - resonating with anyone who has lived, worked, or loved in and around the FIFO world.

So don your high-vis, grab a mid-strength, and buckle up because the seatbelt sign is on.
