AUSTRALIA - CHINA PERFORMANCE RESEARCH PROJECT

Liminal Theatre and Performance, with assistance from the Australia China Council and the Hong Kong Arts Development Fund, worked for 4 weeks with OnandOn Theatre Company at the Cattle Depot Artists Village in Kowloon, Hong Kong.

​

Robert Draffin, Mary Sitarenos, Paul Robertson and Claire Nicholls worked with 20 actors from Hong Kong and Taiwan, sharing Liminal’s actor training and theatre making processes. It was a daily training practice from 10am - 5 pm culminating in a studio performance of sections from a new Chinese translation of the Greek play Oedipus.

​

The training and performance was in Cantonese, English and Mandarin.
