Mantle – My Darling Patricia

Overview

This month, award-winning theatre company My Darling Patricia will unveil the result of a three-year long partnership with Campbelltown Arts Centre in the premiere of Mantle.

Artistic directors Halcyon Macleod and Clare Britton are known for their visually dramatic, inventive performances that combine the talents of interdisciplinary artists to push the boundaries of contemporary theatre. Remember the spellbinding puppetry in Africa? That was them at full flight.

By partnering with the Campbelltown Arts Centre, My Darling Patricia aim to bring their work to a new local audience and this time they’ve woven movement, narration, sound and sets into a performance that crosses between poetry and theatre. Named after the geological space beneath the earth's crust, Mantle plays with memory and imagination to explore the idea of our physical and psychological links to place.
