Instructions For An Imaginary Man

Various People Inc

Australia

Performed in the evocative space of the Old Adelaide Gaol, Instructions for an Imaginary Man is inspired by the writings of prisoners of conscience from around the world.

With music written by Richard Chew and performed by an actor, two singers, string quartet, clarinet and piano, this moving event is a fusion of theatre, video projection and song-cycle.

Instructions for an Imaginary Man is testament to the extraordinary survival of the human spirit in captivity.
