Set to DJ Ori Lichtik’s relentless primal rhythms and dressed in Libby McDonnell’s striking, form hugging costumes, ‘Wolf’ is contemporary circus for people who love seeing performers push what’s possible.

🎟️ TICKETS NOW ON SALE 🍽️ CRUNCH TIME by Counterpilot

Democracy is getting hard to swallow…

Welcome to Crunch Time, a hi-tech dinner party where the audience decides what’s for dinner. Seated around a projector-mapped table, you’ll vote in real-time on every ingredient that makes it onto the plate.

But this is no ordinary kitchen. Each performance, the chef is swapped out for someone in a public position of power, politicians, CEOs, and leaders stepping up to cook whatever the majority demands.

As the votes stack up and the menu unfolds, tensions rise and unlikely combinations emerge. The stakes are high, the chef is doing their best, and the outcome? Well… that’s democracy.

Serving a real five-course meal to just twelve guests at a time, Crunch Time is immersive, unpredictable, and guaranteed to spark conversation long after the last bite.

📅 Wed 15 to Sat 18 July
🍽️ Six chances to enjoy Crunch Time – with performance dinners at 1pm & 7pm ⁠
📍 RPAC, Cleveland⁠
👉For bookings and more info: www.rpac.com.au/crunch-time/

"It is all ingenious, intricate and just about flawlessly realised... Crunch Time is a good way to spend a couple of hours. Go with friends and hope there’s a foodie on the table." — Stage Whispers

Take a look behind the scenes and step inside the making of The Last Princess of Lebanon. ⁠
⁠
Through movement, music and intimate performance, this powerful true story begins to unfold — tracing one woman’s journey to understand her identity and the legacy of her Lebanese great‑grandmother, a princess sent to Australia in the 1930s. ⁠
⁠
As past and present intertwine, artists bring to life a story of resilience, belonging and self‑discovery — honouring the voices of women who question and transform the histories they inherit. ⁠
⁠
Feel the heartbeat of a story that is as powerful as it is deeply human. ⁠
