Kaboom:stories from distant frontlines

KaBooM uses a combination of visceral imagery, thorough research and the sheer discomfort and atmosphere of the site-specific location to bring audiences on a haunting journey through the darkest, most mind-numbingly horrific aspects of war, with plenty to reflect on on the way home.

Thank g-d

This performance piece was made into short film. We  received seed funding thanks to being a recipient of JIFF's Short Film Fund. Screenings were at JIFF Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Canberra and Perth in November.
​Thanks also to all the generous donations that made this film possible.
​Keep posted for future film festivals screenings

Eleanor and mary alice
​by peta tait

What is so impressive about the text by Peta Tait, is the way in which these women exist solely as women of their time. The script allows us to engage with their achievements in that context. With the beats and silences held, without contrivance, by Leiser-Moore, the audience can fully appreciate the power of live music in performance.
(Arts Hub)
​  

​This play by Peta Tait was first presented at Heide Museum, Melbourne before touring to the Centre for Photography in Perth. In December 2018 it was presented at the Seymour Centre part of a program celebrating the 70th year since the Human Rights Declaration.
