Ed McCallister is a happily married man who is neither happy nor married. When overlooked for a promotion at work he returns home to find a woman, possibly his wife, baking cakes and contemplating suicide… all he wanted was someone to remember his birthday.

Hailed as one of the best new pieces of writing and stand out theatre pieces presented in Melbourne in 2010, THESE ARE THE ISOLATE received a number of awards, rave reviews and a sell-out season in its first presentation as part of the 2010 Melbourne Fringe Festival. A collaboration between Mutation Theatre’s associate directors Katy Warne rand Tim Wotherspoon, THESE ARE THE ISOLATE is an unsettling, darkly humorous and tragic tale of the destruction of isolation.
