Family Shows
“Not dance, not theatre, not hilarious comedy, not performance art, and yet, somehow, cleverly all of the above.”
A work for all ages.
Our work is frequently non-verbal and translates easily to international settings!
CHILDREN OF THE EVOLUTION
A gang of five gutsy kids turn up the heat and crank up the volume in a live interactive chat show. Run by kids armed with microphones, questioning minds and big imaginations, they tackle topics from the ridiculous to the personal to the political. For children and adults.
CIRQUE DISARRAY
A show where the children are the stars!
The audience has arrived. The show is about to begin. But WHERE ARE THE PERFORMERS?
Three bumbling stagehands run around, nervously looking for the stars of the show and wild animals that have vanished…
THE CURIOUS GAME
A show like no other, where the world of fairytales and board games collide and the audience...become the show.
With the pomp and ceremony of ridiculous rituals and eccentric dance, characters from an over-sized chessboard come to life.
A bossy Queen, a stupid knight and a pawn with a touch of cunning, conduct an interactive, absurd and humorous game for all age.
GUT FEELING
Ever wondered what really goes on in your insides after scoffing Friday night fish and chips?
What goes in must come out. Go in as food, come out as… poo!
An immersive, interactive journey through an inflatable digestive system, from teeth to bum!
VELVETEEN RABBIT
Set within a film shoot, layered with live projections, Born in a Taxi thoughtfully and hilariously reimagine this 100 year old children’s story by Margery Williams.
Velveteen Rabbit is created by Born in a Taxi and commissioned by Monash University Performing Arts Centres, supported by Creative Victoria.
THE WHALE'S TALE
Immerse yourself in The Whale’s Tale.
Watch from the shore or submerge yourself in this underwater playground full of surprises. Ever wonder what it’s like to be swallowed whole?
Put on your shrimp helmet, take a deep breath, and dive inside the jaws of Manilayo, the humpback whale.
“This kind of performance relies upon the four artists... rehearsing form and style rather than content. It is a highly skilled technique that applies to dance, acting and music alike. It is a return to that place of innocence and play that allows the artist, like the child, to truly create the product during the process... This is profoundly enjoyable…”
