Chalk About

Chalk About is a playful, funny and sometimes moving look at how we see ourselves and others, featuring dance, chalk, chat and one perfect scene containing everything you could wish for.

Chalk About explores the nature of identity, turning the stage into a giant chalkboard on which performers Holly Irving and Hendrik Lebon draw and dance interpretations of their bodies, emotions, and personal histories. What makes us who we are? How we talk? Our pasts or our futures? Or is it the way we dance? Come on a journey to see how two performers find new and inventive ways to share their stories in this joyous and thought provoking show that has been enjoyed across the globe by children and adults alike.

‘As with all successful shows created for young audiences, there is enough nuance in the work that there is something thought-provoking for an eight year old, as well as for those many decades older.’ * * * * Sydney Morning Herald
