The Exchange Project

A new theatre show made by two groups of young people encountering each other for the first time

The Exchange Project brought together young people from Blacktown Arts and Shopfront Arts Co-op based in Carlton. With the help of carrier pigeons (read facilitators) Chris and Natalie Rose, the two groups asked each other questions, passed objects and bounced off each other’s ideas, turning their experiences of growing up in different parts of Sydney into gifts for one another. They became friends before even knowing each other’s names! And this is how it remained until they met face-to-face in Bidwill Square carpark for FUNPARK 2018, combining sound, video and live performance in an epic site-specific show for the local community.
