Caravan Boat Treehouse
BY STEPHANIE BRIARWOOD
PREMIERE SEASON
Burnie Arts & Function Centre | BURNIE
19 - 20 March 2021
Earl Arts Centre | LAUNCESTON
24 - 27 March 2021
There's magic out here. Honest life affirming magic...
The world premiere of a brand new Tasmanian work by Stephanie Briarwood.
The lives of Jack, Mack and Sylvie beautifully intersect in this exploration of isolation in a world saturated with social connectivity.
A misunderstood artist, a father who watched his wife and his child pass and a man who has redefined nonverbal communication all place themselves in exile, and heal as they experience the ‘profound privilege it is to be a human being’.
The project reunites the writer and dramaturgy team of Stephanie Briarwood and Peter Matheson for the first time since Mudlark’s breakthrough production Cross.
This project was assisted through Arts Tasmania by the Minister for the Arts.
