From bedroom to Jerusalem –Intricate
Art national tour 8 – 30 June
Audiences first viewed The Playground Collective’s The Intricate Art of Actually Caring in playwright Eli Kent’s bedroom. Eli and friend Jack Shadbolt were the two actors in the show, performed to an audience of just 15.
The intimacy of that first production, which won Best Theatre and enjoyed a three week sellout season at the 2009 Fringe Awards, has carried over into the theatre version, which Arts On Tour NZ is proud to tour nationally
Described as ‘a comedy about apathy’, The Intricate Art of Actually Caring’s fresh energy and bitingly honest dialogue gives insight into the issues and ideas affecting young people today. It is also very entertaining.
“…There is barely a concern or
issue of human existence that The Intricate Art of
Actually Caring does not touch upon and yet it never
feels earnest or didactic. Nor is it trivial, not in the
least….Don’t miss it.”
