A hybrid of physical theatre, dance and music from roya the destroya & Eliza Hull.
‘If Our Bodies Could Talk’, what would they say? Would they whisper, shout or sing? Are they trying to tell us things? Are we listening?

These themes are explored by movement artist Roya The Destroya & musical artist Eliza Hull in a new immersive performance as part of the ‘Radical Access’ commission for artists with a disability for Melbourne Fringe.

Together they will blend electronic soundscapes, live instrumentation and vocals with movement, physical theatre, circus and audio storytelling. The combination is a striking performance piece that will capture audiences and the passer-by.

The 1pm session will be followed Q&A panel hosted by Carly Findlay which will be Auslan Interpreted.

This project is presented by NGV and received Cash to Create through the Fringe Fund, as part of Radical Access as well as funding from Circus Oz.

Proudly supported by James McCaughey. This project has been assisted by the Australian Government through the Australia Council, its arts funding and advisory body.
