Hello Sydney!
We are heartbroken to have to share the postponement of our show - ‘Nobody Special’ - with you. We had learned three chords on electric guitar for the show so you’d think we were talented, we consulted a law academic on our audience NDAs so they’re not legally airtight but they are a difficult and troubling read, and our tour bags were ready to be packed frantically the night before our flight from Melbourne to you.
We are really proud of this work. Title not withstanding we think it is something really special. We can't wait for you to experience it soon, and to share the KXT space with you (unless you barrack for Manly)*.
2020 and now 2021 is giving us a rare moment of time to think about what theatre can be doing differently, and we’re so thrilled that KXT invited us to be a part of those investigations.
Email us/social us and we can add you to the list so you get updates on new dates as soon as we know.
Take care, Sydney.
Miss you :(
🖤

Nobody Special is a performance work for one audience member at a time. In Nobody Special you are left alone - onstage - with MKA’s infamous sibling duo Kerith and Tobias Manderson-Galvin, as they perform the greatest story ever told: Your life. Or somebody’s life. A life.
There is only one character (You). A lie detector test. A marching band. A ghost hunt. All the while those Manderson-Galvins prepare themselves as if in readiness for the inevitable voyage to the underworld, and ask: How long can we live in the moment while the universe speeds towards the fatal final freeze?
You will be required to sign a non-disclosure agreement. Please bring your crocodile.
Created and performed by Kerith & Tobias Manderson-Galvin
