Helena and the Journey of the Hello

sydney opera house, 22-26 june 2010

"Helena and the Journey of The Hello is wonderful, in the truest sense of that word—filled with strange and intriguing delight. It’s bursting with images and ideas..."

Helena and the Journey of the Hello is a kid’s picture book tale in a crossed line conversation with contemporary times. Children and adults alike are amazed at what is possible with a mobile phone, a coat and an old iron bed as they are taken on the Journey of the Hello.

"A ZEPHYR OF PURE ORIGINALITY AND LYRICISM FLOWS THROUGH THIS WORK....WHICH SIMPLY (CARRIES) ONE INTO A VIVID AND FANTASTICAL WORLD."

BOATS IS CLASSIC STORYTELLING WHERE THE MAGIC UNFOLDS IN FRONT OF THE AUDIENCE. THE SOUND EFFECTS ARE CREATED LIVE, A BOAT IS CUT FROM BREAD, A BIRD TIED FROM ROPE, A CIRCUS HIDES IN A JACKET, AND FINALLY A STORM IS MADE WITH A TEACUP.
