A Daylight Connection, led by Kamarra Bell-Wykes and Carly Sheppard, make work that bucks theatre convention. Hilarious and irreverent, this motley crew of visionary renegades are hell-bent on reimagining what First Nations performance can be.
THE BLOK! is a wild, satirical battle for creative control. An artist known as The Master, drowning in spiralling ego and crushing writers block (Carly Sheppard), hits rock bottom, and is visited by a divine Blak Creator (Alexis West). The Creator unravels the myths of artistic genius, white patriarchal supremacy, and the singular notion of God.
Constipated by pressure and fame, The Master must confront the limits of their genius and surrender to a force bigger than themselves. As we rapidly hurtle towards our collective extinction, how do we separate the false gods from the real?
THE BLOK! is a spiritually rogue theatre experience that exploits classic genres, pop culture, modern-day tropes, and mythical iconography, to create a sublime feast of divine revelation and ego-fuelled chaos. It is performance as rebellion; creation as disruption – radical, Blak, and funny as hell.
