Arrival, The
Synopsis:
Dele plays a last game of football with his friends, says goodbye to his son and sets off on a voyage to a smog-filled metropolis across the sea. Carrying only a small suitcase he embarks on a journey into the unknown. A moment of kindness in a sea of unfamiliarity. . . A hard day at work. . .A lively party. . . A nostalgic lullaby...
Notes:
Based on the illustrated novel by Oscar winner Shaun Tan, one mans tale echoes the many arrivals happening around us all the time. This epic story unfolds through an extraordinary blend of theatre, circus and music.

On The Record
Synopsis:
When Im writing articles, Im not scared at all. Im on a high. Its such a rush. The fear comes later. Sri Lankan brothers Lal and Lasantha dare to publish stories that others wont touch, but at what cost? Meanwhile, in Mexico Lydia uncovers a child pornography ring involving senior politicians, Elena has a run in with the Moscow mafia, amira reports direct from the Israeli-occupied territories and Zoriah comes up against the US Military over his Iraq war images. Combining searing verbatim testimony with dramatic reconstruction, On the Record circumnavigates the globe to bring you true stories of six independent journalists, all linked by their determination to shed light on the truth. Exploring human rights through performance, this is iceandfire's fourth production.
