Celebrated writer and actor, Natalie Medlock, debuts her latest stage play, a tragic comedy inspired by her own lived experience with anxiety and depression.

“I wrote Near Death Experience when I was house-sitting two schnauzers in Melbourne. I was very alone, highly medicated and mental. It's a real exploration of my existential crisis: What is the point in life?” Natalie will also direct the premiere season of the play.

Near-Death Experience follows a young woman named Tabby post her most recent suicide attempt. Tabby has a near-death experience. She falls in love with a chicken-headed God called Carl Jung. Tabby is resuscitated but she is determined to return to her love. Her divorced parents come together to care for her, and through this, navigate their own love story.
