WHAT’S ON
AT CoCA
August & September
Prepare to be entertained at the Centre
of Contemporary Arts with two knock
out, hilarious performances that will
see pop culture, botox and all things
#firstworldwhitegirls collide in a satirical
mix of comedy, romance and Australian
“suburbia”.
Since their sell-out season in 2014,
#FirstWorldWhiteGirls have been making
audiences squirm with delight with their
hilariously narcissistic brand of slick
comedy and catchy vocals.
Now they are back this August 11 &12 with
#FirstWorldWhiteGirls: Botox Party! – that
further pokes fun at first world entitlement
and the self-obsessed “me” generation.
To celebrate, #FirstWorldWhiteGirls are
throwing the most exclusive party in town
and you’re invited. Grab the girls together
for an outrageous hour of confessions,
makeovers, celebrity worship and
backstabbing in this hilarious celebration
of first world vanity.
Take a peek into the lifestyles of the
rich and heinous, set to a soundtrack
of original comic songs exposing the
struggles of our age – quinoa enemas,
Snapchat filters, accidental sexting,
foetus facials and the Refugee Diet. Don’t
miss this chance to see just how offensive
privilege can be.
LOVE DANCE… but with a twist? Taking to
the CoCA stage September 14-15 is BLUE
LOVE created by award-winning
Australian choreographer, artistic director
and acclaimed dancer Shaun Parker.
A delightful infusion of intense physical
theatre, comedy and dance, BLUE LOVE
offers a poetic and satirical take on
the clichés of pop culture, romance
and suburbia.
From a fantastic place where TV soap
meets art-house film, characters Glenn and
Rhonda Flune draw on popular works of art
across theatre, music and film, parodying the
lip-service given to love and its incarnations
as they take the audience on an expedition in
search of the perfect relationship.
