Return season - Virus: A Fugue - an absurdist tragicomedy
Fear, power and hierarchies compete in a world of people, puppets and model villages.
Who will survive?
Our Nordic Noir performances played to sell-out houses in December 2020. Audiences laughed and gasped at the unexpected twists in Virus - a Fugue. As one Sydney Morning Herald reviewer commented: 'The play within a play works its magic.' Equally popular were the beautifully played and performed excerpts from Ibsen's Peer Gynt.
Sydney audiences who missed this production now have a chance to see this quite extraordinary theatrical experience. The double bill plays in a COVID-safe cabaret setting in the majestic Australian Hall provided by the Metropolitan Local Aboriginal Lands Council.
The first half is a selection of Grieg's glorious music written for Peer Gynt - Ibsen's iconic play about identity, narcissism and delusion. It is performed by our talented chamber musicians, dancers and singers.
This is followed by the new one-act play Virus - a Fugue by Fredrik Brattberg which uses the principles of fugal composition. The result is humorous and eventually disturbing. The play reflects our COVID times and develops in very surprising ways. It is accompanied by a newly composed score based on Bach's 'Little' Fugue in G minor played live by our musicians.
