On Friday 16 August, Kingston Arts will present Melbourne Theatre Company’s production, SLAP. BANG. KISS. by Dan Giovannoni, showing at the Shirley Burke Theatre.
Exploring themes of activism, community and hope, director Katy Maudlin delivers a bold production of SLAP. BANG. KISS. which tracks three young people whose stories kickstart a series of events that none of them could have anticipated, transforming them into global symbols of revolution. But when their stories go viral and the whole world is watching, what will they do next?
SLAP. A video of 16-year-old Immi hitting a security officer goes viral.
BANG. Sofia’s impassioned speech for victims of a school shooting makes international news.
KISS. Two boys lock lips, attempting to set the world record for the longest kiss.
This Melbourne Theatre Company production is aimed at high-school students, but proves mature enough to engage us all. This event will feature a post-show Q&A with the artists.
