Surfers Paradise 
You are sitting on the bus when a racially motivated argument breaks out. A young girl takes out a mobile phone and starts to film the event. What do you do? Do you continue to sit quietly or speak up and risk becoming the victim of a violent attack? When you get home that evening you get online to realise the footage from the event has gone “Viral”.
Viral is inspired by a number of true events and broader societal changes facing Gold Coasters and the wider community. It explores the role of social media and technology and how it impacts the way we record, communicate and think about events of racism, abuse, violence and sexual assault in the community.
After the success of The Pillowman (2014 Independent Season) and The Forwards (2015 Independent Season), Shock Therapy Productions returns to The Arts Centre Gold Coast to present another powerful, thought provoking story that is not to be missed.
