Welcome to our campsite. Disconnect from the pressures of the outside world and get back to nature. Get back to basics. Get back to your roots.

Enjoy some family time, some me-time. Reconnect with old friends or make some new.

Pitch a tent and crawl inside. Sit by a fire and find stories in the stars. Share some adversity in forced proximity – your neighbours are only a whisper of canvas away.

Common Ground unpacks the familiar setting of an Australian campsite and pegs out the current state of our nation – its problematic past and uncertain future. It also sets forth a simple truth about our need to reconnect – to the land about us and the people right in front of us.

Written and Directed by Kate Wild in collaboration with the Second Year Acting Cohort.
