About

Second year students from CPIT's NASDA perform a modern Australian classic.

Blackrock is set in a fictional Australian beach side working-class suburb called Blackrock, where surfing is popular among youths like Jared.

His first serious girlfriend, Rachel, comes from a much wealthier part of the city. One day Ricko, the local surfing legend, comes back after an eleven-month odyssey, and Jared gives him a 'welcome home' get-together. A few nights later it is Rachel's brother Toby's birthday party which is held at the local beach club. Unsupervised and with alcohol freely available, tragedy soon arrives. Ricko and the community are soon scrutinized by news bulletins across the nation.
