The Thousands

Perth is a city full of wonderful and exciting things, but it is rarely a city that can claim a ‘first’. Until now! Now we have the best ‘first’ ever: Australia’s first micro-festival of one-on-one art, aka Proximity. Put that in your cool pipe and smoke it you new wave everything east coasters! What happens in Proximity is this: 12 independent theatre, dance and live artists from WA have each custom made a performance for you. Well, they don’t know you yet, but they do want to get very intimate with you! In the bathroom, in the kitchen, on the desk, in the hallway (mental note: food, trike bikes, tap shoes and/or beards may be involved). This show requires audience members to give as good as the performance they’re getting.
