ONE random night in 2004 Michael Burge’s long-term partner, choreographer Jonathan Rosten, died suddenly while rehearsing a show. In the midst of the ensuing grief, Jono’s relatives started the secret and devastating process of disenfranchising Michael from his position as Jono’s next of kin.

With his name removed from Jono’s death certificate, Michael found himself unable to wrap-up his de-facto partner’s affairs; in a legal, ethical and financial ‘David and Goliath’ battle that was none of his making.

Exiled from his own life, facing grief, depression and suicidal thoughts, Michael eventually found the courage to fight back.

“A tough but ultimately triumphant and deeply satisfying read. It touches on themes of grief, denial and injustice. The ending is uplifting.” – Mary Moody.

Michael wrote about the experience in a bestselling memoir Questionable Deeds. Now, he brings his story to vivid life in a new audio play. 

Set against a country coming to terms with the human rights and responsibilities of same-sex equality, Questionable Deeds offers one man’s argument for same-sex marriage and why it’s a no-brainer for any 21st century nation.
