River of Lives

‘That’s How I see It’

Joint research- art project by Victoria University and Maribyrnong City Council as part of the Footscray University Town (FUT) initiative.

All aboard! With a cast of 50 along the riverbank on the historical boat The Blackbird, with live sheng player Wang Zheng-Ting and sound artist Michael Havir. 

Come on a boat trip like no other. A mediative journey upriver. Inspired by verbatim stories from the diverse communities that frequented the river and its history. The surreal and the real clash as performance intercepts with history, espionage and happy joggers and peculiar happenings along the shore.

Free performance to the public.
