In a high-energy explosion of Joyous Rage and Radical Fierce Love through genre-defying performance, Hive City Legacy - Naarm Chapter is set to ignite the stage with an electrifying collective roar. Through the act of decolonising one stage at a time, this brand-new work is a vibrant collision of theatre, movement, poetry, music, comedy and circus - a collective love letter to honour those who came before us and empower those still fighting for visibility, justice and representation.
Created by the critically acclaimed, award-winning Hot Brown Honey (Helpmann, Green Rooms, UK Total Theatre Award) and in collaboration with seven fierce BIPOC Femme artists, Hive City Legacy – Naarm Chapter has been developed through an intensive, process-driven creative journey shaped by professional development, mentorship, skill-sharing and collective collaboration. Now, it’s Naarm’s time to shine!
“It was one of those shows you see where its not just THEATRE or CABARET, it’s the beginning of a massive movement, or it’s a subversion of knowledge that you hold dear, or a mighty sucker punch to the things you thought theatre was capable of…” – Bryony Kimmings (UK)
"Costumes are sensational. The whole show is an episode of manic, attitude-driven fun." - Liza Defouli, Beat magazine
