Review by Theatre Haus of ‘The Girl on the Moon’ presented by Aoife Kissane and Matias Nunez

‘The Girl on the Moon’ was far-out.

Brisbane artists Aoife Kissane and Matias Nunez’s teenage love story, ‘The Girl on the Moon’, made its Earth-side landing last weekend as part of the iconic Anywhere Festival. Yeronga’s The Paint Factory was transformed from a mechanical space into an inner-city apartment block for this new production. 

Steeped in the magical city that is Brisbane, ‘The Girl on the Moon’ is the coming-of-age story that Brisbanites need. The production nestles perfectly into the architecture of the city within the venue, which is esstentially a factory complex filled with metal scaffolds, ladders and industrial equipment and fixtures. For the eye of any artist, it serves as an unlikely but brilliant performance space.
