Rolex Fellows: Listening To Walls Wear Off Their Colour
Three internationally recognised artists, Maya Zbib (theatre, Lebanon), Lee Serle (dance, Australia), and Mateo López (visual arts, Colombia) and former fellows of the Rolex Mentoring Programme, unite in this rare collaboration.
Limited to three performances, the work blends movement, narration and visual performance to explore connection, reflection and resilience in a world shaped by displacement and constant change.
Zbib and Serle perform alongside two South African dancers, navigating a shifting stage where personal journeys intersect and unfold. The performance interweaves theatre, dance, and visual storytelling, revealing moments of intimacy, tension and shared experience.
Through its combination of international artistry and collaborative storytelling, this show examines how bodies, stories and spaces interact, creating a layered, contemplative work that lingers in both memory and imagination.
Where: The Baxter Theatre.
When: Saturday, January 17, at 2.30pm and 7.30pm.
Teen Beach Production
Max, a bold and adventurous surfer, and her upbeat boyfriend Brody are swept into a colourful, 1960s-style beach movie, where the sun is shining, the waves are perfect, and the dance moves are bigger than life.
Suddenly, they find themselves in a world filled with energetic dance battles, quirky characters, and the classic surfer-versus-biker rivalry that keeps the beach buzzing.
But not everything is fun and games; the mischievous Lance Shore and the eccentric Dr Atomix have plans to crash the party and ruin the groove.
To save the day, the surfers and bikers must put aside their differences, work together, and ride the waves of adventure, friendship and music before the tide runs out.
Where: The Masque Theatre.
When: Friday, January 16, to Saturday, January 17, at 2.30pm and 9.30pm.
The Opera Singer
Fiona Ramsay commands the stage alongside the warm, resonant tones of Owain Rees-Davies in a production. The performance charts the life of a devoted artist, capturing the relentless pursuit of craft, excellence, and personal growth.
“The Opera Singer” portrays the toll of dedication, the sacrifices, the strain and the personal cost of chasing perfection.
Where: Baxter Studio.
When: From Tuesday, January 20, to Saturday, February 7, at 3pm and 8pm.
