About:
When a person goes missing from a small community the effect can be devastating and wide-reaching. When their disappearance remains unsolved many years later, the effects of prolonged not-knowing are agonising. Tracing the trajectories of hope, anger and grief over years of police investigations in a range of unexplained disappearances, version 1.0 explore the effects of long-term missing persons cases on family members and communities. Following the journeys of those left behind in the wake of disappearances, The Disappearances Project explores the search for both lost loved ones and for the pieces of shattered lives. An intimate new work from the Helpmann Award-winning performance group version 1.0.
