Tess is yawning on a first date and Georgie is falling asleep in her final year presentation. Often mistaken for hungover uni students, Tess and Georgie live under a code of confidentiality and secrecy as volunteers for their student helpline service – Nightline. Over the course of one night shift, two volunteers and the callers they encounter navigate student mental health, relationships and being on the precipice of young adulthood.
111 More Time is a fictional piece of theatre inspired by verbatim interviews with Nightline volunteers and young people with a range of mental health journeys.
Written by Amy Lever & Harriet Eaton
