Written by Tena Stivicic, directed by Douglas Rintoul, choreographed by Darren Johnston
Yes, that’s exactly what they’ve been waiting for in this country – you with your sewing kit.’
Invisible is a funny, moving and topical portrayal of the world in flux.
Lara left home convinced that hard work and talent would reward her with a better life. Anton was forced to leave his village and finds himself suspended 16 floors above a city cleaning windows. Malik stands on a beach and looks out towards a country where women apparently walk around half-naked. Felix, a young businessman with a pretty wife and a lucrative future, finds it difficult to get out of bed in the mornings. Amid the world of visas and wind turbines, commuter flights and nightclubs, fairy tales and tabloid press a chance meeting drives disparate lives towards a chilling point of no return…
