Meet Pete. He keeps having bad days.

Pete’s been dumped. Days before the wedding, his fiancée calls him “a robot,” and bails for a new lover. So, he does what anyone would do: turns to AI for advice. “The best revenge is living well,” it replies in all of 1.49 seconds.

So Pete – the hapless, the loser, the schmuck – does just that. Tries to live well. If only it were that simple...

What follows is a spiral of outrageous encounters, disastrous own-goals, and spectacular bad luck, as Pete stumbles through a world that seems determined to leave him behind.

Don't miss the world premiere of the darkly hilarious Day (After Day) In The Life Of The Useless, showing at the Heath Ledger Theatre from 29 August - 20 September.
