Description It's 2007 and Kevin Rudd is the hottest ticket in town. Flash forward to 2010 and overnight he is gone. What happened? A journey into crazy, and chaotic events that may have led to Australias quickest bloodless coup of the century. Come and speculate with us as we explore some possible machinations from that fateful night. This is not history - this is a journey into crazy events that could have led to Australia's quickest coup of the century. Adapted and directed by Samsara, this is a night of fun and despair as we try and make sense of the Australian political landscape.
