Jack and Eli spend their days hanging out in Eli's bedroom, drinking beers and riffing on movies, music and girls.
But when the death of a friend causes Jack to look inside himself, he doesn't like what he sees. This revelation sparks a spiritual journey for the two and Eli's bedroom becomes a car, their destination and everywhere in between.
The Intricate Art of Actually Caring is the story of two young guys embarking on a road trip to James K. Baxter's grave in remote Jerusalem, New Zealand.
It has been performed in a bedroom, a 200 seat theatre and an art gallery. And now this award winning show is coming to the Dunedin Fringe Festival. Don't miss out. Book now.
