PASSION, PULSE & POWER - our collaboration with the HITLab will be going ahead! We are looking to premiere the work from December 8-10, 2011, and followup with an improved version, and longer season, in March 2012. Expect to be seduced by colour, life, excitement and technology!

THE EARTHQUAKE IN CHILE - premiered in October 2011

"...one of the more remarkable theatrical 'experiences' which I have had." - Jock Philips, REAL NZ Festival Insider

"A remarkable enterprise: complex and generous... It is theatre embracing the old and the new, namely us and our times. As such it deserves attention as much as applause." - Lin Clark, Theatreview

"This is Free Theatre at its best, offering us a telling metaphor for Christchurch, where our own certain certainties have dissolved of late, where we empathise and communicate with each other now and question the wisdom of our betters." - Alan Scott, The Press
