We was them
WE WAS THEM. Directed By Hans Van den Broeck.
In this performance five dancers explore the Stockholm Syndrome, the psychological phenomenon in which a hostage comes to sympathise with the kidnapper. In total isolation, cut off from the outside world, they look feverishly for new ways of surviving and living. Powerful, intense and surprising!
The premiere will take place on the 7th of October at KVS, Brussels (Belgium). Afterwards it will go on tour through Belgium and Europe. For more information visit our website. http://www.soit.info
I wrote music for this show in Brussels along with Jason Sweeney.
sometimes one hour takes longer than a lifetime, sometimes one hour contains more truth than a lifetime, sometimes one hour makes more difference than a lifetime, sometimes one hour makes a whole life worth living, sometimes one hour is more risky than a whole lifetime, sometimes it’s harder to make a choice in one hour than in a lifetime, sometimes one learns to know another better in one hour than in a lifetime.

Brown Council is a Sydney based video/performance art collaboration consisting of four artists: Fran Barrett, Kate Blackmore, Kelly Doley and Diana Smith. Brown Council’s practice explores the intersections between visual culture, performance art and theatre. Brown Council reclaim, embody and tear-apart images, sounds and actions from the screen, art history and theatre to interrogate how it is that we should perform.

Tino La Bamba, Publicity shots
My name is Tino La Bamba. I am forty two years old and I come from from Alcaca, Spain, a small city on the outskirts of Madrid. This is my diary that follows my journey to Lismore, Australia. And I hear you ask, “why Lismore Tino?”
For this is the question that many have asked me back home.“Do you go to find the treasures of the outback?”
I tell them Lismore is not so out back. They look at me curiously before seeing the fire in my eyes. To be sure, I tell them, I will appreciate the beauty of this mysterious continent. I will travel through the unique settlements of Tamworth, Armidale and Glenn Innes and wonder at their resilience and poise, but my journey indeed has a far greater purpose than sightseeing. For I go to Lismore driven by pain and by honour. I go to Lismore to find the answers to an event that has devastated my family. I go to Lismore to rebuild again. To find my core.
