To Die Will Be An Awfully Big Adventure
A pirated reproduction of Peter Pans (1904-2023)
The Midnight Horrors X The Peter Pans (Barrie, Disney, Mary Martin's made-for-TV movie, et al).
A DIY bedtime thriller. A pirated reproduction of Peter Pan/s (1904-2023). A lawless inventory of regression. Using pulleys, wire, Happy Thoughts™, and wrapped in gold foil emergency blankets the performers repurpose scenes, chapters, and a memory of an island that doesn't exist.

Winner of World of Wearable Art Prize 2015, and the Winner of Victorian Premier's Design Award for Fashion 2022), writers, musicians, climate activists, outlaws, outcasts, unrecognised geniuses, and bullshit artists.
