About

A bold, sensual new multi-narrative drama comes to MELT Festival 2026. Wild Abandon is a daring new work by Seán Dowling, Ian Lawson, and Merlynn Tong — a funny, messy, and unexpectedly tender play about sex, intimacy, and the rules we make to feel safe. Set across a single night in a nondescript hotel room, Wild Abandon follows three couples arriving with three different agendas — all chasing the same thing: permission. Permission to want what they want. Permission to break their own rules. Permission to be seen, without being swallowed whole by shame, expectation, or someone else’s fantasy. Cast: Seán Dowling, Anna McGahan, Merlynn Tong, Jodie LeVesconte, Julian Curtis, and Zac Callaghan. Presented by Museum of Brisbane in association with Melt Festival Location: Underground Theatre, Brisbane Power House
