Theatre: Only Bones Daniel Nodder

With only one light, 1m performance space and their jelly-like body, award-winning kiwi dancer-turned-clown Daniel Nodder creates an entire universe of ridiculous creatures, sounds and stories from almost nothing.

Described as “[like] sculpture in motion” ★★★★★ – The Clothesline Adelaide and “A mesmerising comic performance that traverses space and time.” ★★★★1/2 – ArtsHub Melbourne, this award-winning solo show swings into Gosford for ONE NIGHT ONLY, following a ridiculous 25-show season at the prestigious Edinburgh Festival Fringe.

WINNER: Outstanding Performance / Performer Award, Dunedin Fringe 2025
WINNER: Most Innovative Show, Nelson Fringe 2025
WINNER: Outstanding Solo Performance, New Zealand Fringe 2023

Witness this nonverbal physical theatre odyssey through the cosmos – from the chaos of the Big Bang to the creation (and death) of the dinosaurs, a wibbly wobbly melting iceberg to a singing foot. Mesmerising, intimate and absurd, this minimalist work bends minds, limbs and the laws of physics alike, isolating every part of a truly elastic body.

With aspects of clowning, dance and captivating design by Rebekah de Roo and Ben Kelly, Only Bones – Daniel Nodder explores the endless storytelling capabilities of the human body.

This is an all ages event (under 18s to be accompanied by an adult); moments of low light, sudden loud noises.

Doors open : 6;00pm:

Show time : 7:30pm
