Bev (Jenny Lovell) and Myrt (Amanda Owen) are Melbourne’s senior she-roes: alien investigators who defend our city from extraterrestrial, supernatural, and other nasty threats. In this adventure, a brand-new mobile phone server is secretly absorbing people’s brains to create the ultimate artificial intelligence. Can our beloved duo stop the minds of millions from being wiped by The Feed?

Bev and Myrt and the Scrolling of Doom is a fun, comedic adventure that celebrates the importance of our unsung, elder queer heroes. They are the people who raised us, fought for us, and saved the day.
