A phantasmagoric punk show from the twilight of global crisis from ‘Theatrical Saboteurs’ Doppelgängster.
A high-energy mixture of anarcho-punk, cheap illusions, and frenetic dialogue as two losers in a motel room eat snow cones, watch you via drone, and burn out a karaoke machine.
A kaleidoscopic examination of social atomisation, alienation, and misinformation – Cold War 2.0 is a living-wake redux of 2020’s ‘★★★★★ What the hell did we just watch?’ (Eventadelaide) Cold War, from the ‘Abhorrent, Embarrassing, and Dangerous’ (Herald Sun) ‘Dammit’ (The Music) ‘Wildly Experimental and Wildly Entertaining’ (Daily Review) team.
*Some audience members will be offered a snow cone.
