A modern fairytale that begins with salsa, pirouettes into the clouds and ends on a snow-capped mountain.
Summer and Autumn are in love, but there’s a problem in their love nest. Autumn roams the house, spanner in hand, looking for a drip she can’t see while Summer plans a spectacular skating party. With cracks emerging in their relationship, tough questions need to be asked. What if Julia Gillard doesn’t like the ornamental ice vulture, or Penny Wong can’t skate? And why is ice starting to appear on the floor of their St Kilda living room?
Skating in the Clouds is an adventurous new work by playwright Clare Mendes. The recipient of a Malcolm Robertson Foundation grant, and featuring a creative team led by artists from Melbourne Writers’ Theatre, this magic-realist romp draws audiences into the intricate relationship of Summer and Autumn – with its romance and arguments, dancing and dreaming – then takes you on their ride. Powered by an all-female cast and crew, Skating in the Clouds pays special tribute to the unique strength and style of 50+ women. Finally, girls, a play written for Us!
