La Boite Indie

Overview

This weekend sees the closure of the first round of La Boite Indie productions. These shows have captured imaginations and sparked conversation with their dazzling range and professionalism.

This is Capital City is experienced on a truly hands on scale. Audience members are set loose into Capital City (the Kelvin Grove Village) and are tasked with the job of investigating the history and the myths of the city. Trigger points, audio logs and flags help lead participants through the city, slowly unravelling the mystery behind the sinister facade.

The Séance is an acclaimed production about a group of supernatural phenomenon enthusiasts who dabble in the arcane art of speaking to the dead. This interesting experience brings a small audience together in a binding ritual of 'shamanic incantations and abstract pop covers.'

Combining modern technology with performace theatre, Blindscape utilises an iPhone application that turns the performance space into a virtual world. The key word is discovery, as audience members will percieve reality in a new light that pushes boundaries to their limit.

Do yourself a favour and check out the productions wrapping up this weekend, the next round of productions will be out in July.
