Velveteen Rabbit by Born In A Taxi - Merimbula
A must-see for families and anyone who has ever cherished a beloved toy!
Lights! Cameras! Action! Set within a film shoot, layered with live projections, Physical Theatre Company 'Born in a Taxi' thoughtfully and hilariously reimagines this 100 year old children's story by Margery Williams.
This is a show where the toys are in charge on stage! Be sure to bring your own special toy as your VIP guest (or borrow one from the friendly ushers if you forget!).
One of those rare stories that dare to tease out complex themes of love, loss and change in a way that allows children to connect with them, Velveteen Rabbit is about a toy rabbit who becomes real…but how did it happen? In the hands of Born in a Taxi, the story is infused with dynamic audience participation, live and recorded music with live stream video and projections layered into the work that plays with multiple scales that reflect the perspective of a child. Playful, visual and poetic. A must-see for families and anyone who has ever cherished a beloved toy!
Velveteen Rabbit is created by Born in a Taxi, commissioned by Monash University Performing Arts Centre and supported by Creative Victoria. The Merimbula performance has been supported by RISE Restart Investment to Sustain and Expand – an Australian Government initiative
