Hello My Name Is

Synopsis:
Hello my name is is a theatre event that combines a live performance with a companion online documentation project. It is a collaboration between a performance artist/theatremaker, dancer/choreographer, sound designer, visual artist, videographer and lighting designer. Set in a space we build and call a Community Centre, the work is inherently a conversation between strangers.

Miracle Man

Synopsis:
To be born a human being is a great responsibility. This is a story about Derek from Seddon who experienced a miracle, changed his name to Shanti and found spiritual enlightenment in India. Unfortunately for Derek, his god turned out to be an ordinary guy with a knack for magic tricks and a thing for hairspray. Based on performer Pier Carthews own true story of spiritual seeking and ignorant bliss, Miracle Man is a funny show about wanting to find someone to believe in.

Unfortunate Woman, An

Synopsis:
an Unfortunate Woman is a beautiful tale told with warmth and subversive comedy about the story of three separate lives that eventually collide. It is a mystery, a love story and a quest. Nicola Gunn's masterful performance sets forth a gallery of characters in a world reminiscent of Dickens and Kafka. an invitation to a party and an unregistered file at the Registry of Births and Deaths sets a series of events in motion emerging through an imperceptible accumulation of scenes that result in a thrilling climax.
