Composing music for TRADE by Alison Bennett
I'm currently making sounds and music for Hurrah Hurrah and their final development of TRADE, "a highly physical and stylised exploration of the engine that keeps the world turning: money. Through bouffon and object play, we explore Delta 1, the hedge fund trying to kill through investment. Hilarious and dark, it will make you laugh out loud... and uncomfortably".
Hurrah Hurrah is a theatre company dedicated to actor led, processes based theatre and live performance. www.hurrahhurrah.com.au
The music/sound will be a combination of manipulated organic sounds and crazy rhythms, and once in a while a little melody. A mix of disaster and comedy.
