Double trouble with 'Back to Back Q Theatre'

TWO SHOWS, ONE TICKET. ONE GREAT NIGHT.  

Q Theatre in March brings ‘Back to Back Q’ – a special double billing of two great short shows, Everything You Ever Wanted and How I Saved the Western Black Rhino – two locally produced performances from the Q Theatre.

Everything you Ever Wanted

A new theatre work by Australian theatre artist Rachel Roberts, 'Everything you Ever Wanted' explores the science of dieting, weight and disordered eating.

Rachel Roberts is an intelligent, sensitive and cheeky theatre maker. Cutting her teeth with Sydney brats Applespiel and Canberra's science-theatre mavericks Boho Interactive, Rachel places herself under the microscope in this deeply personal exploration of diet culture and eating disorders.

If you have you ever worried that if you let yourself, you'd never stop eating or had that worry for a loved one, join us on a journey of body image and acceptance.

Research and development has been supported by Create NSW, the Ned Foundation, ATYP and Q Lab at The Joan.

How I Saved the Western Black Rhino

How I Saved the Western Black Rhino, sees Australian theatre maker Nathan Harrison look at the current extinction crisis and explore the daunting complexity of wildlife conservation – along with the uplifting story of travelling to Africa to try to save one of the last Western Black Rhinos before they became extinct.

If you're looking at a whole lot of endangered species but you only have enough resources to save some, how do you make that decision?

In the history of the earth there have been five mass extinction events, the most famous of which is the dinosaurs. With the current extinction rate thousands of times higher than normal, we might be in the middle of the sixth – and this one is being caused by us.

How I Saved the Western Black Rhino has been supported by Camden People's Theatre, Hackney Showroom, Coney, and Q Theatre's Q Lab Residency at The Joan.


Back to Back Q Theatre

2 x 60 minute shows (Everything You Ever Wanted and How I Saved the Western Black Rhino), with a 20 minute interval – a great opportunity to support locally produced theatre and enjoy a great night out.
