Tally is begging security for handfuls of confetti after the concert, washed in euphoria. Across town, Joan is sitting on the living room floor, sifting through years of memories thrown in handfuls across the carpet. Somewhere on a highway, in the middle of red dirt and dry leaves, Emmett is trying to recall which way is up. ‘this show contains confetti’ is a new work developed by Watermelon Jam and Joshua Maxwell about all the ways a heart can be torn up and scattered, messily, generously, without warning, like colourful bits of paper you’ll be finding in your clothes and down the back of the lounge three years later. There will be storytelling. There might be songs. There could be a rave. There may be moments that feel a little too close to home. All we know for sure is this: there will be a ludicrous amount of confetti for a fringe show. Like, a concerning amount. The kind of amount that suggests someone, somewhere, has made a series of questionable financial and emotional choices.Starring; Lucinda Ford, Chantel Johnston, Reuben Harris, Wren Hopkins and Tayah Blackman
