SHOW IS RATED: PG

Streaming killed the video store.
And that’s not all we lost...
“A must-see live cinema event... miraculously manufactured before our eyes by a mere trio of maker-performers” Realtime

An immediate hit with critics and audiences, Coil is one of those rare productions: gobsmackingly clever in its execution whilst being funny, warm hearted and deeply resonant. Blurring the boundaries of theatre, film and ceremony, Coil draws on our collective memories to pay tribute to the glory days of the video store, and commemorate the communities we made within them. Don’t miss this playful, one-of-a-kind live cinema experience.

Please note Auslan available Friday 8 September performance.
