Witness the formidable Speak Percussion company’s return to Perth in this hyper-realistic sound adventure to the Antarctic. Elements of sound, wind and light will unveil a multi-sensorial world, exploring notions of human fragility and isolation to question our relationship to the natural world. Straight from a sold out world premiere season at Arts Centre Melbourne, Speak’s “virtuosic, adventurous” (New York Times) sound is set to provide Perth’s ‘coolest’ art experience this summer. Venue: PICA Central Gallery, Dates: January 20th – 24th [gallery link="none" columns="2" size="full" ids="https://media.localista.com.au/2018/12/Polar-Force.jpeg|Polar Force,https://media.localista.com.au/2018/12/127677_lrg-2.png|The Talk"]The Talk
Join Melbourne-based artist Mish Grigor for a terribly undomesticated evening with a hilariously live twist on the family dinner. Inspired by a period of research with Grigor’s own family members’ sex lives, audiences are invited to step in as she and her family re-enact real conversations about the taboos of sex, sexuality and love. Described by The Guardian (UK) as “funny, toe-curlingly frank, and immensely insightful”, ‘The Talk’ is participatory theatre at its most explicit, unapologetic and best. Venue: PICA Performance Space, Dates: January 18th – 19th & 21st – 25thImage credit: PICA
