CHECKLIST FOR AN ARMED ROBBER
5-14 June 2025
The Space Theatre | 7:30 pm & 1:00 pm


By Vanessa Bates 
Directed by Tasnim Hossain

Two Crimes. One Truth.

 

A Moscow theatre under siege. A Newcastle bookshop in chaos. Two crimes, worlds apart—yet disturbingly connected.

 

Vanessa Bates’ Checklist for an Armed Robber interweaves two real-life events: the 2002 Chechen hostage crisis and a small-time robbery gone wrong in suburban Australia. As these seemingly unrelated events unfold, the play exposes the raw human instincts that emerge under pressure. Tasnim Hossain, Associate Artist at Melbourne Theatre Company, helms this masterclass in suspense and satire.

 

How far will we go to survive—and how far is too far?
