http://joy.org.au/danoandmason/wp-content/uploads/sites/329/2018/05/going-down.mp3 Catherine Davies and Naomi Rukavina, stars of the show Going Down join Dano and Mason to talk all about the performance. Written by Banana Girl, Michele Lee, it predicts the epic downward spiral of the youthful Natalie Yang, and is brimming with Melbourne hipster clichés, costume changes and… a little bit of spew. The sexually explicit look at life as a twenty-something woman in millennial Australia is so saucy, and after 7 weeks in sydney, with 69 shows all up *wink* it’s a visceral experience that cannot be missed. Natalie Yang’s career is going up. Or, so she thought. Her semi-autobiographical sex-positive debut novel, Banana Girl, has finally hit the shelves, but it’s not quite the best-seller she hoped it would be. The career success of her rival, Lu Lu Jayadi, an award-winning author of clichéd migrant stories, sends Natalie’s confidence spiralling out of control. Natalie is only one bender away from cracking her next big idea, but it may take a shame spiral in a luxury shopping centre to get there. Her career come-down is about to get very real. Leticia Cáceres directs this side-splitting comedy on the contradictions of Melburnian multiculturalism, from the fast-paced mind of Hmong-Aussie playwright Michele Lee (winner of the 2018 Victorian Premier’s Literary Award, for Rice).
