Melbourne’s Malthouse Theatre is set to host the world première of Come Away With Me To The End Of The World, a visual, voyeuristic piece of theatre from award winning theatre company Ranters Theatre.
Eavesdropping on conversations between three characters, audiences will be taken on a journey through their actual lives and their dreamed realities – all designed and realised by visual artist Callum Morton. An eccentric piece, Come Away With Me To The End Of The World explores the disparity between the real and the imagined, and the moments at which we let go of our dreams.
“This project grew out of a discussion about some of the current experiences and observations about our own lives. We began to look at the idea of ‘surviving your dreams’ – in particular how we survive the collapse of our dreams, both personally and culturally,” says creator and director Adriano Cortese.
Starring Heather Bolton, Beth Buchanan, and Patrick Moffatt, who also helped devise the piece, Come Away With Me To The End Of The World opens for previews on Tuesday 5th July, with a full season beginning on Thursday 7th July.
