​Each year 55,000 people go missing in Australia and this figure is growing. Most of those who are reported missing are found within a short period of time, thousands are not. Mysteries swell and closure never comes. Why do so many Australians go missing? 

​

The play centres on Em Wells, a young radio host living with the spectre of a missing loved one and coping in the only way she knows how. Em has befriended Tassie, a mysterious Tasmanian Tiger. Tassie and Em are playing a dangerous game – will Tassie convince Em to go missing too? Against this struggle, surreal scenes and verbatim reports weave together the stories of long-term missing Australians, from Aaron Clear to Zoran Kostantinovic.
