Back/Words
Synopsis:
Candid, revealing, funny and completely human: storytelling at its most direct. How awkward was your first kiss? When was the last time you experienced a death? Have you ever had to tell someone for the first time that you were gay? they say everyone has a story to tell - and we're telling them. Bare Hunt Collective brings you back/words, a new piece of documentary theatre. Five of Wellington's freshest acting talent have gone out into the community to interview a range of Wellington individuals - everyone from an eight year old girl, to an elderly couple, to a young gay man. their stories have been recorded on film, and will be acted out on stage - word for word. every movement of the person, every voice quirk, every shifty sideways glance, will be acted out. Honest words, from real people. and if you thought it was hard enough to act out the lives and stories of real people, we'll have their voices in our ears. Using iPods while on stage, we'll be reminded exactly how they told the story.

Munted
Synopsis:
In their next offering after back/words, Bare Hunt Collective brings you MUNTeD, a documentary theatre project exploring the experience of the February 22nd Christchurch earthquake. This piece of theatre is edited together from interviews with reporters and the community, it's a local tale told with humour and kiwi honesty. Share stories of loss, home and the shifting perspectives of what really matters. Connecting Christchurch with Wellington, the community who experienced it through the media and/or loved ones, MUNTeD finds laughter amongst grief and a strengthened community in the heart of the shaken city. Documentary/Verbatim theatre gives audience a more immediate, authentic performance than the common fictional piece. Because this piece is specifically made from and for a recent event in New Zealandhistory, the objective of the work is to create a discussion with the community.
