THERE YOU ARE
(IN DEVELOPMENT)
“You came here to get away. But something else had the same idea.
And wherever you go… There You Are.”
THERE YOU ARE is a new work blending audio-drama, theatre and immersive installation. Placing each audience member as the protagonist of their own story, the story unfolds through immersive sound design and a tailored storytelling experience, with the audience member’s choices (and even their own voice) coming back to haunt them.
Drawing on folk-horror, gothic storytelling immersive technology, There You Are is a modern-day folktale about retreat, reckoning and the quiet beauty and terror of being alone in nature.
Created by the multi-award-winning theatre makers at Madness of Two.
THERE YOU ARE is an inherently modular experience. Designed to be adaptable to different spaces and performance contexts, the story follows a bushwalker who runs away from the city to find themselves… before encountering a doppelgänger emerging from the swamp.
Designed with interactivity and flexibility in mind, the piece has been created to exist in multiple contexts - whether that’s a solo bushwalking experience or an immersive theatrical production.
DEVELOPMENT
THERE YOU ARE was developed through the GreenHouse National Artists Residency program, delivered by HotHouse Theatre in partnership with Albury City and Murray Arts.
It is currently in development with an eye towards festival presentation.
