Family Duet June 1, 2013

What does it mean to be on stage with your grandma? Perform with your sister, or dance with your child? In Family Duet, a multi-generational cast presents an off-beat mix of life experiences and perspectives on the world.

Reflecting spell#7's intimate and inventive approach to theatre-making, Family Duet highlights the questions that family living answers but rarely asks: What is it to live together? How did I get these eyes? Are we ever too young to fail, or too old to disappoint? Where are the emergency noodles?

Three generations aged 6 to 66 mix conversation, media and dancing toys in scenes that probe the passage of time, the meaning of responsibility, and how people overlap. The result is a family autobiography that audiences of all ages will find both instantly recognisable, and totally unique.
