The Tsunami tragedy on Boxing Day 2004 was one of the most traumatic crises in recent human history of natural catastrophes. The Necessary Stage, with our history of engaging society and reality, will present a work that looks at human behaviour during the Tsunami tragedy. Texts, multimedia, sonic landscape and performance will be brought together in contemporary theatre practice; not to recapture the tragic moments, but to bring across moments of recollection; how human beings recall, what do they remember of Boxing Day 2004. This exploration and presentation is not a singular narrative but will comprise voices of people affected in the Tsunami tragedy. Like most life situations, there are many perspectives which encourages us to explore, reflect and make our own verdicts as to what went wrong and how to move on. But different perspectives cannot erase the devastation experienced first hand by those affected by the tsunami. The Verbatim Theatre method - using voices of people involved in the tragedy will bring texts direct from them onto stage to us.

Do you feel safe? Is your school safe? Is your building safe? Once upon a time, there was a little girl who was asked to go to her grandmother's house. Did she make it there? Or did she disappear? Was she kidnapped by someone close to her? Or did she stray from the path? Is your home safe? Are your friends safe? A re-working of the Little Red Riding Hood, What Big Bombs You Have!!! is a story of imminent danger and fear that we all feel. Is the cinema safe? Are aeroplanes safe? With bomb recipes found over the Internet, mass suicides, killings in schools, the threat of emergency looming over us, we live in a SCARY world. Do you feel safe?
