Witness the ethereal performance of "we are the shadows of the things that have been" at the Phoenix Theatre in Burwood, Deakin University Melbourne. This mesmerizing production delves into the enigmatic world of hauntological dramaturgy, fusing elements of immersive and traditional theatre to explore the delicate balance between life and death, our understanding of grief, and the unbreakable moments that bind us together.
Drawing inspiration from the notion that "time is out of joint," hauntological dramaturgy challenges the fixed boundaries between the living and the dead. Within the theatrical realm, stories, actors, sets, props, and costumes are ingeniously repurposed, lending a haunting resonance to each performance. By bridging the gaps between the past and present, the theatre becomes an extraordinary platform for the exploration of presence and absence.
This captivating performance features auditory experiments, the profound words of Sylvia Plath from her archives, and poignant home videos. Through these mediums, the collective experiences of loss and death anxiety are artfully utilized to reshape our perspectives and connections with the world. Ancient tales intertwine with the incorporeal voice of a long-departed poet, as fragments from a bygone era elegantly merge with the present.
Allow the threads of time to unravel before your eyes as they entwine, tangle, and converge. Immerse yourself in an experience that transcends the barriers of time and space. Join us at the Phoenix Theatre on December 15, 2023, for a performance that will leave you bewitched and moved. Admission is free.
