[Past Event] The Word by St Martins

Who is in control?  The clock is ticking. The Word is at risk.

The Word reaches across epochs, emerging out of an organic process of young people digging for light inside recent dark years via creative endeavour and artistic expression. The Word wrestles with systems of power to reclaim and rewrite new future trajectories.

This exciting new showcase of performing arts follows two rival groups hiding in a disused place, an abandoned archive. They hash out clues to a feud fuelled by fragments from the past. Reaching across the Before, Now and After, the group fights, dreams and grapples with scattered pieces of truth and memory to save The Word.

St Martins

Their most artistically ambitious work to date brings together an ensemble of eleven young, diverse performers with a cohort of established practitioners, including writer Michele Lee, composer/musician Allara, choreographer Bridget Fiske and set/costume designer Matilda Woodroofe.

Please note that whilst performances are family friendly, they contain some mild coarse language.

Assisted by the Victorian Government through Creative Victoria and the Australian Government through Creative Australia, its arts funding and advisory body. It was also made possible with the generous support of VicHealth, Angior Family Foundation, City of Yarra, Robert Salzer Foundation, Australian Decorative & Fine Arts Societies – Yarra and Abbotsford Convent.
