Improvention - Triple Bill – This Scene Was About + A Bouffon Christmas + Life. Refabricated.
It’s nearly Christmas and this is a ‘feel good’ triple bill of the world’s best theatrical improvisers, supported by improvising actors from all over Australia engaging in a magical group hug. Watch one, two, or all three shows, on the one ticket.
7:30pm – This Scene Was About directed by Tim Orr (USA)
One of the most internationally inspired show formats of the festival, this concept was created by Milanese improviser Fabio Maccioni, when he was a guest in Colombia, and now directed in Australia by and American, who is one of the most talked about improv instructors on the planet. And it’s going to be so nice, because it’s cast from his intensive workshop this week, where students learned, “emotional mirroring” and “reading scenes as a gift” whilst playing “characters who actually like each other”.
8:25pm – A Bouffon Christmas directed Daniel Orrantia Gomez (COL)
In possibly the most anticipated show of this festival, you will laugh yourself senseless and sometimes be aghast at the incredibly exaggerated theatrical style of Bouffon, from a physical theatre/clown master we’ve been trying to get to this event for years! See what happens to the comparative Christmas traditions of both Colombia and Australia, as Daniel and his ensemble cast transform it into something you never imagined either theatre or Christmas could ever be like.
9:20pm – Life. Refabricated. by Maja Dekleva Lapajne (SLO) and Norbert Sven Fö (EU)
Something just a little bit special. Uplifting performance art, observing and exploring the meeting points of theatre and dance improvisation, wandering off into clowning, enjoying sound and music making and, last but not least, refabricating life. All this stage endeavour is fuelled by close friendship and powered by passion for improvisation.
Life. Refabricated. is also an exquisite sensoric experience since it takes into account sight, sound, space, light, touch and sometimes due to closeness even smell. Life is way too wondrous not to experience it in many different ways!
Is it Christmas yet?! This triple bill is like a whole festival in one night….., but have a look and see what Canberra International Festival has on Thursday….., and Friday…., and Sunday, right here at REP, (or Wednesday’s incredible Improvision Song Contest at Canberra Playhouse, or any night late at Smith’s Alternative)
