Proto-type Theater - Whisper

Thursday 19 March, 4.30pm & 7.30pm

Proto-type Theater | Whisper

Whisper is a visually decadent, aurally immersive performance that asks the audience to question 'what is real' in a world of increasing technological sophistication.

Each audience member has a set of headphones allowing them to hear the performers speak directly in their ear, placing them within the scene, taking the central role in this fictional walk through a fictional city. Obscured behind a cinematic screen, the performers are seen as shadows, silhouettes or in stark clarity, creating a multi-layered soundscape to accompany their narration.

This ultra modern production, with a touch of film noir, employs technology called foley to create a highly personal and totally immersive experience unlike anything else.

Written and directed by Peter S. Petralia, performed by Gillian Lees, Adam Nash and Andrew Westerside, lighting by Rebecca M.K. Makus and music by Philip Reeder.
