| Description |
Taxi is a truly intimate theatre experience. An audience of three will sit in the back of a moving Taxi and experience life in short grabs. The grabs are sometimes sweet, sometimes mean, melancholic and delightful. They reflect the experiences of taxi drivers and passengers alike, with different narratives playing out depending on which taxi you get in. The West is a magnificent and evocative moving backdrop on the journey. 2011 Victorian Premiers Literary Award winning playwright Patricia Cornelius and one of Australia?s leading site-specific directors, Susie Dee, join forces with filmmaker |
