Explore the perils of success and the freedom of failure in Monster Makers, a charmingly inventive new participatory work for children and adults. The Sad Scientist just can’t get his monster to be monstrous. He needs help from the real experts: the kids.

Originally co-produced with Harbourfront Centre, Toronto, 2011, and developed in collaboration with Magnetic North Theatre Festival, 2010, with the help of Young People and the Arts Australia, 2010 and Young People's Theatre, 2008. Made possible in part with funding from Fresh Ground new works commissioning awards.

 

“A catalyst for imaginative absurdity, the playwright blows out the walls of conventional theatre, sending storyline conformists scurrying for cover."
