Sandy Dann chats with local playwright and proud Nyul Nyul woman Melody Dia about her play FIFO – Fit In or F**k Off! being published by Broome based Indigenous publishing house Magabala Books!
Also joining Magabala Books marketing manager is Xenica Ayling who is Marketing Manager
FIFO – Fit In or F**k Off! explores the challenges fly-in fly-out (FIFO) workers and their families face, including the disconnect to family and friends, feelings of displacement, isolation, and the ever-present drug culture. The play follows two families, Jono, Mary and Janey, whose lives have been impacted by mining. Playwright Melody Dia weaves a confronting and visceral story as problems escalate, hit a turning point and explode – with secrets coming out.
FIFO – Fit In or F**k Off! is filled with wry humour, turbulent emotions and unflinching truths. This powerhouse of a play will leave the reader on the edge of their seat asking, ‘is it worth it?’
