SLOW;
moving or operating, or designed to do so, only at a low speed
BURLESQUE;
an absurd or comically exaggerated imitation of something
Peer into the dressing room and who knows what characters you’ll find — a washed up diva refusing the spotlight; men in suits doing important business things; other-worldy creatures tying themselves in knots; or maybe, if you’re lucky, a real, ordinary human.
From the mind of one of the most exciting young artists in Aotearoa, Freya Silas Finch, comes a story a lifetime in the making. A story about transformation; about dressing up; about becoming nothing; about becoming everything.
Through absurd comedy, physical theatre, burlesque and many, many, many costume changes, A Slow Burlesque asks; if all the world’s a stage, who are we when we exit stage left, and strip off our costumes?
Silo Theatre proudly present the world premiere of Freya Silas Finch's A Slow Burlesque.
