BAREFACED STORIES

REFRESHINGLY HONEST. BOLD. AND BRUTALLY FRANK.

You wouldn't believe what happens in a state that's four times the size of Texas but with less than 3 million people rattling around in it. All that space, where no-one can hear you scream, or laugh, or cry. Shit happens here (with a very Australian accent). Barefaced Stories are the true stories told by people raised under a chroma blue sky, on powdery white beaches, in aqua-clear waters and occasionally, deep down in the dirt - some are humourous, some are sad and some downright perverse.

Created in 2010 by performers Andrea Gibbs and Kerry O’Sullivan (“the Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers of Australian storytelling” – Richard Fidler ABC Radio), Barefaced Stories is honest, risk-taking, refreshing entertainment that hits the spot.

Cody Cameron-Brown: Sweet Choc Bomb O' Mine

Steve Rodgers is the the kind of guy you root for: earnest, eager, and with a cheeky genuine grin. He lands a role alongside Hugo Weaving - yes, the Hugo Weaving.

And in an open rehearsal for the media the cast begin doing trust falls. You know, that exercise where your partner catches you? Steve's paired up with Hugo, and let's just say things don't go to plan. A disaster, all in front of cameras, journalists, the works.

Recorded live at Barefaced Stories, the theme of the night was Fall From Grace.
