Presented by D.I.V.E Theatre Collective
Inspired by the stories of local migrants, Exodus is a collectively-devised contemporary physical theatre performance that focuses on real and metaphorical migrations and raises the questions: what unites people who decide to leave their native land?
In different languages, real and imaginary stories of arrival and departure are woven together to capture the essence of the authentic and metaphorical migrant experience: strangeness, dislocation, complexity, displacement, belonging. From mass migrations of people to the bewilderment experienced by a new immigrant arriving in new territory, the show depicts characters who leave physical and imaginary lands and reunite in the poetic sphere.
Exodus revisits episodes in the history of migration in Australia, questions the meaning of the exodus and examines the dreams of those who undertake the transit journey.
