play.
part theatre, part game, ‘play.’ is a show about play… for grownups.
armed with a book of stories, a box of games, and a spark too bright to smother, robbie is looking for someone to play with.
‘play.’ weaves play into performance to share the stories of the games we once played, and the ones we still do. bursting with energy, award-winning director and performer robbie fieldwick creates a playground to delight, connect, and reignite the spark of play.
from the creators of ‘prometheus.’, ‘all the stars.’ & ‘heartbeat.':

Presented by: perhaps, theatre.
led by emmett aster and based on binjareb boodja (mandurah, wa), perhaps, theatre. blurs the lines that separate theatre from other art forms to explore the feelings that, perhaps, we’ve all felt.
we are dedicated to intimate storytelling that pushes the boundaries of traditional theatre. we tell real stories through music, movement, poetry and play. we’re especially drawn to the stories that aren’t often told – those that have been overlooked, silenced, or misunderstood.
you've felt it, right?
