La Boite HWY
A snapshot of the current state of the city's performing arts.
Overview
Like theatre? Then you're going to love La Boite's latest offering. They're not just bringing a new show to the stage — they're presenting a snapshot of the current state of the city's performing arts, and thinking about how it'll evolve in the future.
And just how is the Kelvin Grove-based company managing to do that? Just let us count the ways. Their La Boite HWY program is overflowing with works in progress, talks and forums that showcase fresh scripts, ideas and productions, ponder issues of relevance to today's theatre practitioners, and fine-tune essential skills.
If you're an emerging theatre type, that means workshops on producing, directing and playwriting, plus panel sessions about sticking it to the straight white man and navigating your career trajectory, too. And if you just like to watch the end result of someone else's creative endeavours, then you can check out nine efforts in various stages of evolution, from readings to rehearsals to mini-showings.
