X-Stacy

Commissioned by La Boite and directed by Sue Rider, Margery Forde’s X-Stacy excited critics and audiences in 1998.

On the timely theme of dance parties and designer drugs, it had strong appeal to the youth market which “took the box office by storm” (Annual Report). X-Stacy is a noteworthy example of the substantial support processes offered by La Boite to the writer in the form of workshops, readings, dramaturgy and script consultation.
