In 2009 I travelled to Lebanon for the first time and saw the ruins at Baalbek. An idea started to form...

RUINS returns - and this time, it's coming to Parramatta

Mirrors sit at the heart of RUINS. They're the portal to the underworld, a place we reckon with who we really are. As Cocteau wrote "each day in the mirror I watch death at work." It's fitting then, that this is also the job of the artist, to hold a mirror up to the world.

We will not look away from the ruins of Gaza. We cannot look away from the ruins of Lebanon. So we return to this work and hold the mirror up again and again and again.

Tell your friends. Tell your families. This show is from our hearts to yours. Thank you @ntofp for giving us a platform for this special work.

PHIVE, Parramatta
2-5 December
As part of @ntofp's Heartland Festival

We are incredibly grateful to have received $5,000 from the Australian Hellenic Progressive Association (AHEPA) Arete Chapter Benevolent Fund, made possible through the kindness and support of Stacey Vanos. @stacey.vanos

The funds will support the development of our next original work, A Little Birdie Told Me, helping us bring artists together to explore, devise and shape a new piece of ensemble theatre. Support like this gives independent companies like ours the opportunity to create ambitious new work and invest in the long, collaborative process that makes it possible.

From us at Clockfire Theatre Company, thank you to Stacey, the AHEPA Arete Chapter Benevolent Fund and everyone involved in making this possible. We are deeply appreciative of your belief in our work and look forward to sharing what comes next. 🙏🏻 ❤️ by @clockfiretheatre

Here we are on Ngarigo Country in Dalgety, tucked up cosy in Em’s bro and bro-in-law’s gorgeous cabin, nestled among the most wondrous bush and birdlife on the mighty Snowy River. Just us, Em’s new puppy Beau, and a notebook full of theories.

We came to write, to wander, to bird watch and to chase an idea. There’s real magic in making work in a small town with a big history.

We finished the trip in the nation’s capital, on the lands of the Ngunnawal and Ngambri peoples, chasing a certain ex-PM’s briefcase that kept eluding us. It’s almost like he doesn’t want us to see what’s inside.

All in all, theatre nerd heaven. This is the way we love to work at the very start of an idea, where something bizarre and outrageous slowly takes form and quietly lets us know it might just be worth talking about. Letting the environment speak to us. The “what if we...” bit.

This part of the process is what feeds the artistic soul.

So, our darling thespians, watch this space. The truth is out there. (Allegedly.)

Last weekend we had the pleasure of diving into the mythic with this incredible bunch of humans. As so many of us felt, it is so freeing to shake off the business of theatre and go back to the why. To play, explore, fail, succeed and find a sense of togetherness was pure magic. Thanks to our beautiful participants, we truly loved being on the floor with you ❤️ ♥️ ❤️

Two joyful days of pure ‘play’ with friends old and new, facilitated by the generous spirits that make up @clockfiretheatre. “Into the Mythic” was a two day intensive workshop exploring story and ritual in theatre. Ensemble and choral work is my absolute favourite .. haven’t had this much fun since the two year ‘holiday from reality’ that was drama school. With @lawlul66 @mslucymiller @nimble_numbat @tasha__obrien @tamaraelkinsartist @stuyversant @old.butstillgood @olivia.ayoub @businessbrennan @patriciogabrielibarra @dai.moret @madbaghurst @jackiedentwrites @catmartin39 by @clockfiretheatre

And with just 3 days to go until we begin, we can’t wait to welcome everyone into the room this Saturday for two days of myth, storytelling, physical exploration and ensemble practice.

Our work lives in the space where the ordinary becomes mythic, where a threshold becomes a transformation, a season becomes a character and a gesture carries the weight of something timeless. That’s what we’ll be making together in this intensive.

If you’ve been thinking about joining us, now’s the time to jump in.

🗓 16 & 17 May
