PROJECTS
one step at a time like this is currently in development
Water Project Team are currently having a sabbatical. But they are always willing to help.
an interactive, location-driven, performance event
taking place through lanes and buildings of Melbourne's nightscape.
This work is current undergoing development.
Seperate audiences are led on a trail through hotel rooms, bars, darkened laneways, riversides and elegant apartments in inner-city Melbourne. As they journey, they collect fragments of a broken heart, mind and culture.
Audience involvement and complicity is heightened by a distinctly mobile audience/performer relationship. The work interweaves performance, audience conversation, web-based and mobile phone technologies, walking, narrative and sound & video installation.
All this serves as a starting-point for meditations, reflections and revelations on the nature of love, loss, memory and dealing with it.

There are two rainwater tanks at either end of the plaza.
One tank is full to the brim with water. The other is empty.
At 9am the workers begin their daily task : ferrying water from the full tank to the empty tank; using a teaspoon.
It may be the end of days, but it's good to know it's being handled by professionals - The Water Movers.
A performance about what we search for in this drought-stricken country: love and friendship; meaning-filled engagement with work; art and artefacts that touch and engage our very essence; ....and water.
The Water Project is a one-day durational performance event. It will interact with the space and the public, who are free to participate/assist the performers.
