Mikelangelo – In The Belly of the Whale
Advertisement
What happens when a man meets his alter ego in the belly of a whale?
In the Belly of the Whale is a new solo show by acclaimed Croatian-Australian singer, songwriter and performer Michael Simic. In this rollicking and revealing tale, his story as a new dad – juggling home life with life on the road – intertwines with the mythic ocean adventures of his charming alter ego, Mikelangelo.
Shipwrecked and swallowed by a giant sperm whale, the two meet in its belly and must find a way to escape.
Combining songs, storytelling, comedy, and physical theatre, In the Belly of the Whale is vibrant, tender and deeply entertaining. This personal work shines a light on what it means to be a father, a son, a husband and an artist.
Co-created with Tracy Bourne | Performed by Michael Simic
Presented by Brisbane Powerhouse and Press Play
