Drama! Action! Intrigue! This one really has it all -9 the latest in a long-running series from a talented but ever-changing production team, Meeting will have you on the edge of your seat for its entire epic length. You have to see it to believe it and you're probably still going to leave the theatre shaking your head.
The previous edition in this over 30-year-old series was savaged by the critics for its length, and the complexity of the plot. The producers claim to have taken the complaints on board, and aim to produce a much slimmer, streamlined edition this year.
Well, OK, it's not a film. This year, the ANU Film Group is trying a bold experiment in interactive theatre. Yes, that's right - you may be called on at any time to help determine the outcome of the piece and thus the direction the Group will take over the coming year. Don't believe me about how great these events are - come along to Coombs and find out for yourself. Get involved! Do you want to be remembered as a spectator or a participant? But please note the early starting time!
