Are you a reality television fan? Did you mourn the loss of Big Brother when it left the airwaves? Are you a sucker for a good home reno show? Then you know that the best reality television isn't necessarily based on reality, it is that which revolves around the most heightened reality of drama.

Dutch theatre makers, Kassys, knew this when they put together their production, Good Cop Bad Cop. Using physical comedy and playing with the most absurd aspects of that which is purported to be reality television, this production will leave you delighted and have you questioning everything you thought you knew about those popular shows on the goggle box. Most importantly, you will laugh at the false drama set up by the large personalities living in 'the house'.

One of the best things about the Sydney Festival, other than simply the sheer number of events you can go to, is the exposure to creators, artists and ideas that you'd never normally see.  So take advantage of the opportunity to see world class theatre, get your square eyes ready, and work out exactly which cop you'd rather be when you head to the Seymour Centre this week.
