Greg Fleet

Greg Fleet also wrote the Blue Room Award-winning This Is Not A Love Song and the hit memoir These Things Happen.

Signifying Nothing features a who’s who of Australian theatre, film and television, including Roz Hammond, Lawrence Mooney, Luke Hewitt and Caitlyn Beresford.

In an imagined Australia where The Republic is approaching like a train Paul and Lainey Macbeth are the ultimate power couple: ambitious, ruthless and willing to risk everything for something more.

Words and function. Drive and irreversible deeds. In the end the difference between a stain and a masterpiece is perception.
