This showcased event has concluded.
What happens when a Chinese-Australian manicurist switches bodies with a white, latte sipping, TV executive? A chaotic and outrageous comedy awaits!
From the hilarious and politically-charged wit of Michelle Law - one of our most exciting playwrights and the creator of Belvoir's Single Asian Female and SBS's Homecoming Queens - comes this irreverently funny new comedy that pulls no punches in exploring race, representation, privilege, and taking woke culture to task.
Dreaming of one day owning her own salon, the headstrong and determined Winnie (played by Kimie Tsukakoshi) spends her days buffing the manicures of her demanding, oblivious and mostly-white clientele. One such client is Kate (Amber McMahon), a glamorous high-flyer who is very assured of her progressive credentials.
When a mysterious electrical event at the nail salon means Kate and Winnie wake up in each other's bodies, all hell breaks loose and both women are forced to see the world, and their places in it, from entirely new angles.
Directed by STC's Directing Associate Courtney Stewart, Top Coat gives the issues of our time a much-needed makeover and mounts a hilarious satire of Australia's media landscape.
