We’re growing a new world…
Join us in a living, breathing, sensory adventure.
The world has decided things need to change. It’s shaken and shuffled, tumbled and turned, and now something magical and mischievous has started to grow…
Immersed amongst hundreds of real plants, watch, hear and feel as music, puppets, sounds, scents and shadows come to life around you. Here we can be still, here we can just be.
Together, we’ll create a new world, led by our senses. This world will be beautifully different because you are here.
When the World Turns is an accessible, intimate, interactive show from the pioneers of Sensory Theatre, Oily Cart. You can expect lots of up-close sensory moments, a gentle pace, and plenty of breathing space for processing. The show has been expertly crafted for disabled people of all ages who experience the most barriers to access (who are wheelchair users who have historically been labelled as having profound and multiple learning disabilities.)
“Profoundly moving… reveals new possibilities” The Conversation
A collaboration between Oily Cart (UK) and Polyglot Theatre (AUS). When the World Turns was originally commissioned by Arts Centre Melbourne for major arts and disability festival Alter State.
