Loose Ends Queensland Tour
In 2019, Red Chair will tour Jens Altheimer's new family theatre production "Loose Ends" to 30 regional and remote Queensland communities including Warwick, Townsville, Ayr, Georgetown, Hughenden, Normanton, Cloncurry, Mount Isa, Julia Creek, Longreach, Cunnamulla, Theodore, Moura, Biloela, Yeppoon, Moranbah, Pinnacle, Sarina, Capella, Springsure, Childers, North Stradbroke Island, Cleveland, Gympie, Millmerran, Miles, Sunnybank and Bokarina.
Makers, creators, and story lovers; dive into a theatrical adventure that feels like the magic box of a bygone trickster! Journey to an eccentric place where gadgets are poetic, puppets naughty, machines untamed and circus tricks pop up when you’re least expecting it! This is a world where music appears from lemons, carrots and bunny’s bums, monsters go crazy and birthday parties are ferociously celebrated. Loose Ends is the story of a man who thinks he can organise all his life in boxes, and has a knack for getting into mischief. Can this tinkerer learn enough about real friendship to keep him out of trouble? This breathtaking show is highly visual, emotional and unpredictable. It makes inventions and machines fun and adds a few quirky edges to puppetry.
