PRODUCTION:
questions to ask yourself in the face of others
VENUE:
Opened 30 May 2003, Performance Space, Sydney.
PROGRAM NOTES
Is it possible to be innocent after experiencing the
history of the world?
“We started with a hostage situation. We started
with questions of action and apathy. Suddenly there was
too much action, and it was out of control. The work
changed. The world changed.”
Adam and Eve have lost control of the wheel, driving through
fire to reach the Garden of Eden. They arrive late to find
a burnt out ruin, populated by ghosts. The airwaves are
saturated with information that streams past their eyes
and filters through their pores, evoking hysteria, hilarity
and fear. They appeal – in the best sense of TV courtroom
drama to be set free. How should their crimes be punished?
The audience will decide …
Part warped Passion play, part Scout musical variety show,
and part bleeding heart confessional, questions to
ask yourself in face of others will unsettle and surprise.
