As June rolls in there’s a definite hint of creative development in the Brisbane theatre air. !MetroArts leads the charge with a month long self-styled, drop-in house party Free Range. Across town La Boite is back with The Chairs, and Queensland Theatre Company with Fat Pig. The Restaged History Project people are back at the Powerhouse with Youth VS Physics, Empire Theatre opens Cosi in Toowoomba, and JUTE in Cairns has Dancing Back Home. You can even catch some acrobatics in KGS in Brisbane on Friday and dance, slam-poetry and digitalised music at !MetroArts during the week. Something for everyone really.
