Overview
The city will set 2024 off to an exciting start with the return of the Sydney Festival. One of the many exciting events coming to town is an exciting collaboration between Riverside's National Theatre of Parramatta and UK-based theatre company The Javaad Alipoor Company.
That collaboration is Things Hidden Since the Foundation of the World, a multimedia theatre production coming to the Sydney Opera House for a limited run between Friday, January 19 and Sunday, January 21, 2024. This production is a look at the nature of investigation, with the real-life murder of prominent 1970s Iranian pop star Fereydoun Farrokhzad at its core.
Using a blend of technology, music, and dramatisation, this show explores how our thoughts and actions are affected by the tools we use to investigate — from Wikipedia to murder mystery podcasts — and how the creation of those tools affects the outcome.
With performances by Javaad Alipoor and Asha Reid with Raam Emami (King Raam) and on-stage musician Me-Lee Hay, this one-of-a-kind show will help you wrap your head around a new way to tell stories.
Things Hidden Since the Foundation of the World is playing at the Sydney Opera House from Friday, January 19 to Sunday, January 21. For more information or to get tickets, visit the website.
