Slack Mirror — Nice Loud Voices
Sketch comedy, dystopian-style.
Overview
From the screen to the page, tales of the future have promised us many, many things over the years. Some of them were good, like Back to the Future: Part II's hoverboards. Some of them weren't, such as 1984's vision of governmental control. Some of them just keep finding new ways to turn technological advances into a horror story, which is why Black Mirror keeps us all hooked.
Now, imagine this kind of thinking, but in a sketch comedy show. The end result: Slack Mirror. Hitting Brisbane Powerhouse from Thursday, November 28–Sunday, December 1 as part of this year's Wonderland festival, it packages bleak dystopian visions with a sense of humour.
Amy Currie (Love/Hate Actually) and Drew Lochrie (Titanic: the Movie, the Play) will be your guides into the future — and expect their take on things to come to take a "well we may as well laugh about it" approach.
