In addition, designs of promotional material for the award winning First Nations play titled Waltzing the Wilarra have been created to highlight the poignant messages of love, friendship and reconciliation.
This year we have a diverse range of monologue performances, from an ambitious Jewish female comedian to a tormented Irishman who struggles to come to terms with a crumbling friendship. These 8 minute monologues transport the audience to a different time and place, yet raise questions so relevant today. The Group Performance project is also well underway and shaping up to be an entertaining exploration of the question; Just Because You Can, Should You?”
