Extreme action, dreaming stories and theatrical theft in Adelaide The Stage Show

    • Performing Arts

At the 2024 Adelaide Festival, we visit theatre foyers, dressing rooms and the city's famous gardens to meet the artists bringing theatregoers to the edge of their seats.

We speak with artistic director Ruth Mackenzie, who is delivering her first full program this year, we meet acclaimed choreographer Elizabeth Streb, whose 'Action Hero' performers in Streb Extreme Action will push their bodies to the limit in Time Machine, we visit the Narungga artists and cultural custodians sharing the creation stories of their country on the Yorke Peninsula in Guuranda, and we learn how acts of creative thievery can become a joyful paean to the performing arts in Grand Theft Theatre.
