— Encounter neighbouring worlds in a fearless double-bill

A double-bill where neighbouring worlds offer states of safety, nostalgia, and freedom in expression.

ROCKABYE by Sam Osborn

The punk baby within sails through a transforming world of balloons, parachutes, forts and fans, guided by divinity — holding tension between protection and expression, tenderness and rebellion.

Raw, playful, and disarming, ROCKABYE inflates and empties identity and the ego. In this sandy site of ache and liberation, belonging becomes bricolage. Instability becomes a space for connection and release.

Throughout ROCKABYE, harmony is constructed and slips into chaos. It’s a space for angst and play where comfort and discomfort manifest expression and transformation.

With live sound sampling and composition by Ev Morris, the performers create a spontaneous, responsive sonic and movement score, reflecting their respective journeys of empowered authenticity. Up-cycled costuming by Hailey Scott is reimagined live.

HAVEN by Wren Sky Milera

In a world of control and rigidity, pressure to become someone else, terror at being truly seen, we are caught between survival and longing. Deep down, what we desire most is exactly what frightens us: to be known for who we are.

HAVEN is a safe place; a place to come home to, where we are free to be authentically ourselves. What happens when we are safe enough to dissolve into our inner ways of being? When we can express ourselves effortlessly, without armour?

HAVEN offers refuge. A space where that knowing can emerge. Where deep softening occurs, and we are transported into a new reality — unfurling one breath at a time.
