2015

Birdcage Thursdays


Performer

Presented by La Mama Theatre and Big West Festival with project partner For the Crowded House
What is hoarding? Why can’t it just be ‘cleaned up’? Performed in the round in the shell of a house, belongings pile up as we witness an ageing mother resisting her adult daughter every step of the way towards an important inspection. Set to a physical rhythm of telephone calls, bird calls, lawn bowls and dance moves within a transforming interactive set, BIRDCAGE THURSDAYS is a theatrical journey which plumbs the complexities of hoarding from claustrophobia to frustration, hilarity, sadness, relief and back again. Selected performances will be followed with Q&A facilitated by Hoarding Education specialist Tania Reid from ‘For the Crowded House’, alongside the artists.

Luminous Lunas 


Dancer  | Roving

Celebrating the beauty, complexities and contrasts of femininity is Luminous Lunas; an innovative series of site-specific performances, featuring abstract visual poetry, stories and myths about the Luna (moon), directed by Yumi Umiumare. Pop-up installations in different inner-city locations encourage surreal, provocative and fun audience experiences.
