Clickety Tock Print
Clickety TockPart truth, part surreal, part tongue in cheek – Clickety Tock is a fast paced, intriguing installation theatre piece that wanders into the chaotic, stressful and time starved life of the 21st Century.

Enter into the mundane life of Tom (an accountant tick tocking through his day to day life) and those that surround him: a relationship starved, fast paced “suit”, a pedantic and frustrated personal trainer, an over-committed and talented uni student, a lost, heart-broken procrastinator, a beauty obsessed woman, and an overwhelmed grandmother coping with the developments in her world.

 

Be part of a small, interactive audience and take a fly on the wall look at these people, their choices, their lives.

How do you allocate your 168 hours a week?

Clickety Tock is a new installation theatre piece that combines puppetry, theatre and experiential moments for a small audience of 24, which later splits further into groups of 4. Clickety Tock allows audiences to wonder through the space while experiencing close-up, bite sized pieces of each of the six character’s worlds - all at the same time.

 

Enter into an intriguing and wry journey where Tom goes about his every day life: productive, punctual and somewhat painful. On this day he remembers Mathilde, a girl he fell for when he was young. He reminisces about her freedom, her desire to ignore the regular routine of life… How much he had forgotten her passionate words.

 

What happened to Tom to make him end up where he is? Who is he influenced by? What world does he now live in? Meet those in Tom’s life and see….

 

Written and directed by Alex Desebrock (Kaleidoscope, Melbourne Fringe 07) with a strong cast of emerging theatre makers including Rob Gaetano, Julianne Donovan, Erin Patton, Katharine Elder, Jordan Lee, and Glen Lloyd, along with puppetry by Michael Bevitt and set design by Dayna Morrissey.

 

Come and see some exciting fringe theatre outside of the Fringe Festival.
