Junklandia

Presented by BMEC and BRC's Environmental Team

Siblings from the faraway planet JUNKLANDIA embark on a mission to Earth to teach the earthlings the Junklandian ways of music and creative recycling! This show is a spectacle of rhythm, dance, circus and comedy guaranteed to blow your mind! ‘JUNKLANDIA’ excites the imagination of children and adults alike. Kitchen utensils, cardboard boxes and buckets become the greatest drum set in the world; plastic bags are an amazing musical instrument and the human body becomes a unique sound machine. With a language of gibberish and rhythm, this show is accessible to any age and nationality. The show ends with an incredible ‘JUNK Orchestra’ where each audience member, equipped with a recycled instrument, will come together to create a one-of-a-kind Junkyard Band! By uniting in rhythm, music and movement, the audience can experience the tangible power of collaboration & teamwork whilst having fun!

Detention

By Tristan Bancks Adapted for the stage by Callan Purcell and Kobra Sayyadi

Detention tells the compelling tale of two young people from disparate worlds finding each other amidst a figurative minefield: Sima, a Hazara refugee fleeing a detention centre when her visa has been rejected, and Dan, a marginalised boy raised in a caravan park in regional Australia. Their shared quest for a sense of home and safety binds them together. Based on the novel by Tristan Bancks, this production explores the refugee experience, centering on themes of displacement, belonging, and shared humanity. Developed in collaboration with Hazara artists and young people, Detention seeks to ignite conversations, using theatre as a catalyst for truth-telling and change.
