DEFECTOR ART TAKES ON 2011

T

This is the time!  This is the year!  Defector Art Theatre will be pushing more boundaries this year!  As we enter our eighth year it's time to relight the fire in our hearts and take risks.  That is what Defector Art is all about!

  

SO WHAT HAVE WE DONE THIS YEAR

Our Boxashorts show which for the first time combined theatre, film and burlesque was enjoyed by everyone.  The show covered many issues.  Issues that other companies don't want to touch, but we did.  People are asking when we will be doing one again, hang in there it will happen.  A big thank you to Suzy Markvoski who produced the show, acted in the theatre section, showed one of her own films and performed in the Burlesque section at the end of the night.  And boy did that open up some eyes!

Frank Otis and Stevie Hall hit the road and performed in Sydney for Short and Sweet.  The thing is at the last minute they had to get a new play together.  So Frank wrote and Frank and Stevie rehearsed and got a play together in 48 hours.  No it's not a record but it was pretty tight.  What's more the play was well received by audience and judges.  It will be performed in Melbourne later in the year.

SO WHAT ARE WE DOING FOR THE REST OF THE YEAR

Well sorry can't say much yet but a show is being planned for about the middle of the year.  This show will be getting back to basics for Defector Art.  We want people to either love or hate it.  We plan to push a lot of buttons.  More info on it soon!
