FLASHBACK
We've been digging through the archives and and exploring the history of Silo — here's a flashback to what we had on stage this time:
Five Years Ago — Body Double by Eleanor Bishop & Julia Croft with Karin McCracken was in rehearsal, ready to hit the Q Loft stage for Auckland Arts Festival 2018.
Ten Years Ago — Hui by Mitch Tawhi Thomas. A world-premiere for Silo, Hui follows the four estranged brothers from 2002's Have Car Will Travel as they reunite after the death of their father.
Fifteen Years Ago — Rabbit opens at Silo's first home, now the Basement Theatre. The cast features fresh young talents Claire Chitham, Madeleine Sami, Edwin Wright, Jodie Rimmer and Dean O'Gorman. Click here to read the NZ Herald's review from 2008
