Days before the election, to launch the inaugural HOT!HOT!HOT! climate arts festival, the mighty, mighty MKA- Melbourne’s new writing theatre offer 25 plays by 25 of the best Australian writers.
TWENTYFIVExONE exhibits a diversity of voices, by invitation terrifying! daunting! and apocalypscising!!! climate change!!!!!!!!!
NB: No play will be longer than a song! Short and sharp, like violent punk tracks (around 45 seconds) to indulgent, strung out, epic psychedelic stoner metal sagas of 6min 66 seconds recurring.
MKA’s ‘TWENTYFIVExONE’ is a concept they stole off a 17-year old girl, then hid in shame because no-one likes plays, and now it’s back; and it’s powerful, political, and only at HOT!HOT!HOT!
