Lost
in Transformation: A Performance by Bellingen Playback Theatre
Let’s
talk about change! At times the old does not do it for us any more: we open to
new possibilities, without really knowing what the outcome will be. We shave
our heads (or turn blonde), we move
houses or across continents, we leave our partner, enroll in a course or change
careers. Other times change happens to us: the kids move out, or we find
ourselves pregnant; a loved one leaves us, or finally (finally!) we meet the
love of our life; we have a stroke, or a stroke of luck.
Let’s
talk about being lost and finding ourselves again. What did you use as your
compass when you were high at sea, the sky was overcast and no known land was
in sight?
The
end of 2012 is here and our collective dreaming takes us many places. Are we
peeking over the Edge of Chaos, a dangerous, unstable place, full of creative
potential.
‘Will the world end?’ some fear. ‘The Mayans
did not just run out of paper! Will it be a polar reversal, a solar flare or the
impact with planet Nibiru?’. Or are we accelerating towards the brink of an
evolutionary leap – a time in which we will create a new, paradigm, a more
harmonious and life sustaining one?
Wherever
you are at and whoever you are, you are warmly invited to come along to
Bellingen Playback Theatre’s next performance and listen to our community’s stories of transformation.
Playback
Theatre is a theatre of storytelling. A dynamic form of spontaneous theatre
where the unexpected often happens! At a Playback performance there is no
script. Audience members tell experiences, dilemmas or events from their lives
to the Playback Conductor. Actors and a musician then shape and recreate these
stories, bringing them to life using the power and playfulness of improvised
theatre.
Bellingen Playback Theatre is a
dynamic and highly respected theatre company made up of very juicy local artists. Since its beginnings in 1989, the Bellingen
Playback Theatre Company has undergone numerous transformations, hence claiming
expertise on the subject of this particular performance.
