Life is Short and Long

About

Tickets available at the Wirrabara Craft Shop P: 8668 4250 or at the door of the Wirrabara Institute on the night.

Beautiful, insightful and surprising, Life is Short and Long brings to life a multitude of characters and stories told from the point of view of a traveller who discovers unexpected turns of life for herself along the way.

Performance-maker Emma Beech visited Wirrabara in the winter of 2013. What she found was lots of greatness in a town almost forgotten.

Emma turns a bitter-sweet catalogue of human resilience in the seemingly disparate locations of Barcelona in Spain, Wirrabara in South Australia’s mid north, and Port Adelaide, into a magical, witty and occasionally utopian meditation on human nature.

Life is Short and Long is a performance installation created from Emma’s three years of
travel yarns and investigations into how people respond to crisis and change.
