EXPERIENCE COLLIDER
Presented by DADAA and Circus WA Awesome Festival, Studio Underground, State Theatre Centre of WA, 2019
A gauntlet of shared obstacles; a performance of fantastic exchanges!
Twenty eight young people on a journey together, moving through the Experience Collider. All explore it differently; some move suspended in the air, in chairs or on wheeled platforms. Others sing, sign or carry lights and video cameras. They need to find a way through the Collider as a group, taking turns playing the boss and workers, but always together.
This unique performance was developed through DADAA's performing arts program, joining CircusWA's Youth Troupe and teenagers with high support needs. Experience Collider is a groundbreaking inclusive performance using dance, circus, theatre and film
