PIAF have released a sneak preview of events that will be highlighting at the 2017 Perth International Arts Festival.
The three shows include…
BOORNA WAANGINI The Tree’s Speak appearing from February 10 – 12 at King Park.
“Over three extraordinary nights Kings Park transforms into a cathedral of light, sound and imagery to explore the biodiversity and beauty of the six seasons of South Western Australia. State of the art technology and the natural world come together for this spectacular walkthrough experience – where trees come to life, great flocks of birds fly overhead and animals dance and play.”
THE DARK MIRROR Zender’s Winterreise running from February 10 – 11 at the Perth Concert Hall.
“In this Australian exclusive, sublime singing and haunting visuals combine with Hans Zender’s startling orchestration of Schubert’s Die Winterreise. Delivered by the world’s most accomplished performer of this classic song cycle – and set against a backdrop of surreal video and imagery – Zender’s Winterreise is a rare contemporary reworking of Schubert’s powerful evocation of lost love.”
THE GABRIELS Election Year In The Life On One Family running from February 11 – 18 at the Subiaco Arts Centre.
“Tony Award-winning playwright and director Richard Nelson presents his strikingly relevant and fiercely human trilogy. Over the course of three plays (experienced as one marathon event), we meet the Gabriels – middle class upstate New Yorkers trying to make sense of a tumultuous presidential election year.”
The full program of events will be released Wednesday 2 November, 6.30pm. For more information head to perthfestival.com.au.
