CONSTRUCT

PEACOCK THEATRE - SALAMANCA ARTS CENTRE - 8.00pm

Presented by Salamanca Arts Centre & Mobile States, construct is candid, complex and clever. Helpmann Award winning construct is a dance work that exposes the dark underside of dream-building.
Construct starts with an empty theatre, full of possibility - a space in which to construct. Effortlessly shifting between the physical act of building and the emotional construction of lives, Liedtke explores with wicked humour the curious connections between building a home, a life, a relationship, and a future.

THURSDAYS CHILD

THEATRE ROYAL - 7.30pm

Thursday’s Child is Tin, born on a Thursday and, like the old nursery rhyme, ‘has far to go’. A strange and lonely child who digs, his wanderings take him underneath the earth into the subterranean tunnels that he’s pre-destined to roam. Told by Tin’s sister, Harper Flute, it is a story of a family’s struggle on their desolate farm during the great depression. There is death, crop failure, neighbourhood and family disputes. Tin is an ever present but mystical essence in their lives. Harper watches with a child’s clear eyes her family’s struggle to survive on the hot and impoverished land. As life on the surface grows harsher, her little brother escapes ever deeper into a dark, underground world. The play explores the spirit of hard struggle with change, cruel misfortune and the idea that life is a pre-determined fall from a great height. Thursday’s Child is a poignant and intriguing story, ending in great hope.
