Playful Acts of Rebellion
By Gramaphones Theatre Company
Inspired by courageous protesters who risk everything for what they believe in, three women decided to take action. These women resolve to stop their ineffectual moaning and complaining and to find playful ways to stand up for what they believe in. Playful Acts of Rebellion questions what makes something worth the fight, what effect can an individual have? and how does trying to change the world end up changing us?
Charting the performers journeys, from unusual concepts to moments of desperation, despair and human triumph, Playful Acts of Rebellion uses exciting visual storytelling to tell three uplifting stories about what is that makes us act. Using projections, picket signs, ladders and whiteboards, the show animates their honest attempts to fight against injustices. It explores how protest, although difficult can also be joyous.
