About the Show:
A faux foreign film live on stage.
From the multi-award-winning team behind It’s Dark Outside, New Owner and Alvin Sputnik comes a deeply romantic visual extravaganza that will reignite your love of humanity.
Somewhere in the northern seas lies the small island nation of Sølsét. Once a thriving metropolis, a decades-long drought has plagued the community, and only a hopeful few remain.
A faux foreign film performed live each night, Lé Nør [the rain] is brought to life by a band of artists who have inherited the stories of Sølsét and now perform them to remember, to resist and to begin again. Perth theatre makers The Last Great Hunt combine cinematic mastery and theatrical magic to tell interwoven stories of love in a world that is falling apart.
Following sold-out world premiere seasons at Perth Festival and Mandurah Performing Arts Centre, Lé Nør [the rain] invites audiences to witness both the on-screen story and the behind-the-scenes action in a nostalgic celebration of everything worth fighting for.
