Phee Broadway Theatre

Tomorrow night at 7pm! The very clever Aimee Chapman presents the culmination of her Coming Home sound project with a concert featuring piano, cello and electronics to premier a new musical work that celebrates the sounds of the commute from the city to our home in the goldfields. Featuring Josh Cohen, Emily Williams and Anthony Lyons and an array of sounds contributed by our community, it’s the first Phee At Home residency showing for the year and there’s a few tickets still up for grabs. We. Can’t. Wait.

Cool your thoughts with this fantastic short video by Leonie Van Eyk documenting the recent AT HOME project, The Language My Mother Speaks. Produced by Samantha Bews in collaboration with Denise Martin and Tim Preston, this project is a great demonstration of how our local creatives are re-imagining the Phee through the AT HOME residency program (keep an eye out for the tiered seating as cemetery!). Congratulations to all involved in this incredible work - more projects coming in early 2020!.
