An assortment of ordinary students cross paths in the privacy of an ordinary school toilet. Here they are free to be themselves, escape their problems, confide in their friends, share their secrets and torment their victims. VACANT invites the audience to become a fly on the wall and observe the devastating consequences that result from seemingly harmless situations, gossip and misunderstandings. VACANT is the direct result of in-school research and is based on the stories bravely shared by dozens of school students across QLD. VACANT is an important addition to your students’ school year.
 
“The students were absolutely excited and moved. They thought the issues were very real and close to experiences they knew of.”
