Day 1 in Brisbane - 'Los Lunch Dates'


In "Los Lunch Dates", Anna Yen, Therese Collie and Jeff Turpin presented a series of satirical sketches from a work in development, in a buffon style, incorporating physical comedy, mime, movement and song. The scenes included a group of overbearing parents at a soccer match, a pair of professors, and a send up of the John Lennon and Yoko Ono’s ‘bed-in’ for peace.

In the feedback session, facilitated by Flloyd Kennedy, the spectators noted the success of the satirical scenes in commenting on recognisable stereotypes, and also indicated to Anna, Therese and Jeff that they could see thematic threads emerging around issues of power, control and control over other people in the three scenes presented.
