Intensively personal, self-revelatory work has had something of a renaissance in Australian independent theatre recently.
To name a few, there’s Melbourne/ Naarm based Wiradjuri choreographer Joel Bray’s recent shows Biladurang and Daddy, both of which share the artist’s private worlds with audiences in generous and playful ways. Theatre company THE RABBLE, led by Emma Valente and Kate Davis, have also just premiered their work Yes – a piece that draws on some aspects of the confessional style to explore particular social structures behind our personal choices.
