Overview
Surry Hills is a familiar terrain to many of us: late at night, wandering home in search of that soft, warm pillow. Yet to an unlucky few these lonely streets are their home, and they wander in circles with nowhere else to go. Imagine, if you just stopped for a moment, the people you would meet here and the stories they could tell.
It may be something like Intersection. The upcoming show put on by the MilkCrate theatre combines a cast of professional actors with a group of homeless and disadvantaged members of the community alongside the Sydney Street Choir to put on an authentic community production. The show charts the meeting of two people at a crisis shelter in Surry Hills and tracks their story through the back streets of Sydney to Mission Australia and Taylor Square before heading back home to the Edmond Eager Lodge. We, the audience, will literally follow them on this journey which puts us all at a crossroad.
The philosphy of the show is very much on raising awareness, like the many workshops that the Milkcrate theatre put on throughout the year. But keep a lookout for the post show banquet which happens every year — where else can you eat with the stars of your show, after walking a mile in their shoes?
