Who are Breaking Point?
Breaking Point is a fully improvised thriller. Each night the company takes a single suggestion from the audience and grows it into a new story set in a dystopia, following ordinary people pushed so far that rebellion starts to look reasonable as they rise against the system crushing them. The show draws on revolution stories from the screen such as Fight Club, The Matrix and V for Vendetta. The players include Shanil de Silva, Victor Johnson, Phil Martin, Karl Maton and Alisha Walkerden. Breaking Point ran for two nights at the Factory Theatre as part of the Sydney Fringe, and was staged in the Mini Theatre at the 2026 ITS Comedy Festival. [1][2]
