This is How it Goes
By Neil LaBute
Cody and Belinda are high school sweethearts who married for better or (mostly) worse. They were a dream interracial couple, he was the sports hero, she the cheerleader – but 12 years and two kids later and their marriage is in trouble. When an old classmate returns to town, he sees Belinda at the mall and a flirtation begins; pulling them into a triangle of love, racism and distrust.
Compelled by their desires, LaBute’s characters manipulate their values to suit their needs. With time and probability twisted, all is not what it seems in this thrilling tale of intrigue and betrayal.
Presented by Darlinghurst Theatre Company and Fishy Productions

'…one of those rare pieces of theatre when you hear the audience gasp'
The Guardian
'It is edgy, challenging, profane, violent and raw, sometimes shocking but always, always riveting… theatre at its best.'
