Midsumma 2025: Medium
 

In Medium, Ari Angkasa presents a provocative and visually stunning live film performance under the moonlight. Combining elements of performance lecture, sci-fi thriller, and musical extravaganza, Angkasa explores the power of cinema and storytelling to shape our collective identity. The stage becomes a cinematic space, with Angkasa as the intermediary between the screen and the audience, navigating the complexities of belonging, gender, and representation.

Each night of Medium will be a unique experience, offering a haunting yet hopeful view into how stories can empower, terrify, and liberate. The performance is a thrilling challenge to traditional notions of film, theatre, and performance art, creating a space where anything is possible under the stars.

    Dancing at Lughnasa | New Theatre
    A gifted embroider of words, Friel combines soft lyricism and hard meaning in his play, a tragical comical historical pastoral on a spree and spoiling for a spirited spar.

    Retrograde | Melbourne Theatre Company
    The script is based on a true story, although this dramatisation can feel somewhat contrived, with important assertions not interrogated, and credibility stretched as a result.
  • The Glass Menagerie | Melbourne Theatre Company
    This Glass Menagerie is top shelf, and while blessed with an extraordinary cast and the highest of production values, it will not meet with everyone’s measure of how this play should be staged.

    The First Murder | Pinchgut Opera
    In the care of Pinchgut Opera’s director, Erin Helyard, this music, formulaic as it indeed is in some respects, sprang off the page into an experience rich in emotions.
