Thaw

Presented by HOTA

High above, suspended by a crane, a figure isolated on three tonnes of melting ice struggles for balance. As sunset approaches what will be left?

Created by Joshua Thomson, with an original score by Alaska’s Matthew Burtner, THAW is a potent metaphor for our time and an inspirational act of endurance, supported by unprecedented achievements in design and engineering.

“It’s reflective of the real world, what’s happening now. We have glaciers melting.” - audience member, Sydney

An urgent call to act on climate together, from leading Australian physical theatre company Legs On The Wall, THAW reaches across languages and circumstances to reflect humanity’s shared contemporary truth: There’s no time to waste.
