World Theatre Festival 12
Brisbane Powerhouse and Monsters Appear present
A Spectacular of Sorts - Scratch Series
Monsters Appear (BRIS, AUS)
Fri 24 - Sun 26 Feb 2012
An amalgam of eisteddfod zest, melancholic gaud and shameless theatrics. Inspired by Edward Gorey’s The Gashlycrumb Tinies, this showing is rough, black and ridiculous.
Ivan and Juniper feel hopelessly unprepared. They’re in charge of a tribute – they must re-enact a list of alphabetised but altogether unfortunate events. The set is unfinished, the room is too small and the audience is arriving sooner than expected. Ivan and Juniper must rise to the occasion. This is storytelling at its darkest and most strange – it’s a spectacular of sorts…
