The series was created and written by award-winning writer Samantha Strauss (Nine Perfect Strangers and Dance Academy), alongside co-writers Anya Beyersdorf (The Twelve) and Angela Betzien (Total Control).

“Samantha Strauss has created a series that is searing in its comment but entertaining at its very core. It’s complex, it’s got bounce and it’s got bite, and we love it,” Executive Producers Liz Watts and Louise Gough said.

“We have a brilliant creative team under the fine leadership of director Jeffrey Walker and one of the best cast ensembles in an Australian production. This is a Melbourne story with a global reach.”
