Born in a Taxi
February 1315, 2025
8:00-9:00 pm

Enter The Waiting Room and you immediately ask: where’s the stage? The entire space is filled with rows of chairs. Sit where you will; from the outset, the audience is complicit in the show’s creation. Free to sit and watch or join in as the audience is seduced into collective play and scrutiny. Interactions occur, events take place and meaning accrues. These interactions are the engine of The Waiting Room, as the line between audience and performer fades as genuine in-the-moment exchanges shape each moment that follows. The stakes keep getting higher,The stakes keep getting higher, building to an unexpected dramatic climax. Empowering and unpredictable, each show is driven by a soundscape created real-time live each night. A site-responsive work adapted to studio spaces, idiosyncratic spaces, in and around traditional venues. Collective human behaviour under the microscope, from the mildly amusing to the disturbingly surreal … when there is nothing else to do.
