What’s On: The Neighbourhood (La Boite Theatre Company & Multicultural Australia)

The Neighbourhood

8-29 February

Roundhouse Theatre, Kelvin Grove

An intimate story-telling experience that transports audiences across countries, borders, and oceans in search of a home

Presented by La Boite & Multicultural Australia, in association with Empire Theatres, The Neighbourhood is a companion piece to La Boite’s critically acclaimed 2017 offering The Village.

The work tracks seven individual, real-life journeys, from the experience of fleeing homelands to seeking refuge and creating, fostering and discovering a new community (or neighbourhood) in Australia.

Written and co-created by the story-tellers themselves alongside Todd MacDonald, Aleea Monsour, and Ari Palani, The Neighbourhood traverses a range of story-telling forms to examine the concept of home and the vital importance of belonging, promising an evening of honest, authentic, and deeply moving theatre imbued with a sense of hope, power, and recognition.
