COLD WAR

Theatre and Physical Theatre • Contemporary

International • Australian Premiere

Two losers eat snow cones in a cheap motel room. They watch you via a drone. The only flavour is tasteless.

Part punk gig, contemporary theatre, and political intervention; renowned international climate activist-artists, Doppelgangster, deliver a thrilling, hypnotic, phantasmagoric spectacle; blasting a light on the horrors of ecological disaster. Postdramatic chaos feat. two extraordinary performers and a violent & anarchic jazz-punk score.
