Rumbleskin

  • Theatre
  • Entertainment

Wanna know what it feels like? When it happens? First you feel a rumble…

A trucker picks up a pregnant teen on a long stretch of nowhere. A young rodeo rider stumbles into a mysterious ranch. A fugitive comes to a cursed town in search of safety. An affliction known as the Rumbleskin is stretching itself across the country. No one knows how it began, but everyone has a story about it.

Rumbleskin is a new queer folk tale by Ames May Nunn, exploring transformation in a strange and dangerous land.

Supported by the City of Melbourne.
