Facing The Blank Page: What would you write?

Tuesday, Oct 11, 2011
8:30am -> 10:00pm
Maqamat Dance Theatre

Enter a packed theatre alight with vibrant conversation is waiting for one of the international shows brought to our local stage at The Registry Theatre by IMPACT11 to open. Facing the Blank Page by Maqamat Dance Theatre is about to open. In front, there is an array of lights, 7 x 4. On the stage is a theatre chair on a wheeled platform. There is also the unusual inclusion of a huge number of speakers mounted around the theatre. One of the IMPACT hosts announces at the front of stage that due to the special effects used in the performance, if audience members had to leave, they would not be readmitted. We are told that there is a television monitor for live casting the performance in the lobby to witness the end if we need to exit and that the show was only 45 minutes long. The audience was tangibly intrigued.
