Launching themselves into the Melbourne independent theatre scene this September, local outfit One Little Room Theatre proudly present the Victorian premiere season of Laura Wade's award-winning play, 'Breathing Corpses'.
Amy keeps finding bodies in the hotel bedrooms she cleans, Jim's been trying to ignore the smell coming from one of his self storage units, and Kate's annoyed she had to waste her whole day talking to the police. As each of these separate stories is linked, the worlds around Amy, Jim, and Kate begin to fall apart. Dark, funny and confronting, Breathing Corpses explores our instincts for death, sex, and power.
Winner of the 2005 Critics' Circle Theatre Award for Most Promising Playwright, the Pearson Playwrights Best Play Award and the George Devine Award, this thrilling horror comedy offering during the Melbourne Fringe Festival promises to serve up audiences a unique, immersive experience.
One Little Room Theatre Co-AD Alice Daly discusses the choice of work, "We were initially drawn to Breathing Corpses for pragmatic reasons - there are seven great, fully realised characters, providing a challenging and rewarding role for everyone in the company. Breathing Corpses is a play that comes immediately off the page, exploring loss and loneliness, desire for more than we have, and what can go wrong when you're forced to pursue it. Things everybody experiences, but which take on the scale of tragedy when they happen to us as individuals."
Performed in Thornbury's new Candyland Arts Space, this converted industrial site will put theatregoers right in the thick of the action. With four different settings, patrons will have the opportunity to watch the action unfold from multiple points of view.
A community art space offering venues, artist studios for hire and regular community workshops/forums, Candyland Arts Space has it's Melbourne Fringe maiden voyage with this premiere season from theatre collective One Little Room. It's shaping up to be distinctive addition to the Melbourne Fringe Festival program - not to be missed!
