Come Away with Me to the End of the World

By Adriano Cortese

05 July 2016 – 24 July 2016 Beckett Theatre

Malthouse Theatre, Ranters Theatre,

Devised Theatre Collaboration World Premiere

This production invites you to listen in on a conversation between three people as they shape and reshape their physical and emotional selves. This self-imposed quest takes them through shifting landscapes and climates, snow-topped mountain peaks and erupting volcanoes. It is structured as a series of intimate conversations, ranging from the prosaic to the beautiful. As we eavesdrop on these three figures, moments of eccentric dance and song erupt, and the disparity between their actual lives and their dreamed selves resonates intensely.
