We regret that wheelchair access is not possible for this venue due to the current COVID-19 Safe Management Measures that restrict the usual building access route. We would very much like to welcome patrons who are wheelchair users to join us at our other Fringe events at the Esplanade Theatre Studio, which is accessible to wheelchair users, and online.

 

RELATION TO QUIET RIOT

The work aims to shed light on the often unseen side of unstable and extreme political situations; the people who are the most vulnerable and are the most transformed as they live out the consequences of decisions made by adults. It offers possible understandings of and strategies for our contemporary world through the stories of quiet resistance, forced complicity and self-detachment of youths.
