Morph

This is Morph: an immersive theatre experience combining clowning, comedy, storytelling, puppetry and movement. Follow the journey of one shape-shifting woman as she asks the question, “what happens if theatre disappears?” and embarks on a quest to save it! 

What begins as a straightforward adventure story, slowly starts to unravel and transform – songs pop-up out of nowhere, clowns misbehave, puppets take over the stage, animals run wild and audience members are invited to get involved! 

Written and performed by local physical theatre artist, Jem Nicholas, Morph is for anyone who has ever pretended, performed or felt the thrill of becoming someone (or something) else.

• Suitable for adults and young people aged 10-years-old and above.

• This is a seated event.

• Duration is 60 minutes.

Jem will also be running a theatre workshop for young people, aged 10 and above at 12-2pm, Saturday 25 April. How to Morph introduces participants to the art of “morphing”, a technique where actors learn how to transform themselves into different characters. Places are limited, so book now! All workshop participants will be awarded a $5 discount to attend Morph the live show.

Created with the support of Moonah Arts Centre and Assembly197.
