Legitimate Bodies Dance Company<br />
The Goldilocks Zone<br />
in association with Richard Wakely<br />
Performed and created by Nick Bryson and Damian Punch<br />
Nick Bryson and Damian Punch, acclaimed for being<br />
trapped in the bodies of peacemaking Northern Ireland<br />
politicians in the Spiegeltent during <strong>Midsummer</strong> <strong>Festival</strong><br />
2009, now take even more gigantic steps forward but this<br />
time for the benefit of the whole of mankind. Putting to<br />
good use the Irishman’s instinct to think and act selflessly,<br />
they set themselves a difficult mission of space travel<br />
beyond the confines of their own country and planet.<br />
They have plans to communicate unambiguously with<br />
aliens and repopulate a distant planet on friendly terms<br />
with all life forms they may encounter. This is their intrepid<br />
journey to ‘The Goldilocks Zone’ … not too hot, not too cold<br />
but just right ..<br />
“Simple, clever and hilarious”<br />

2-Dimensional Life of Her<br />
2-Dimensional Life of Her is a performance work made of<br />
drawing, animation, puppetry, projection and paper that tells<br />
the story of an artist whose reality is infringed upon by an<br />
imaginary world that manages to escape from the confines<br />
of its two-dimensional existence. A richly imagined parallel<br />
world is awoken where drawings reproduce themselves, drift<br />
between surfaces and move in and out of three dimensions.<br />
The audience enters a space filled with possibility, becoming<br />
a part of a multi-dimensional real time artwork that breathes<br />
with life.<br />
Illusionary, captivating and cheeky, 2-Dimensional Life of Her<br />
was first presented as part of the Under the Radar program at<br />
the Brisbane <strong>Festival</strong> 2008 where it won Best in Show.<br />
Suitable for all ages.<br />
