The Time is Now
La Boite Theatre
The Time is Now is a thrilling glimpse into the future as imagined by ten switched-on, politically savvy teenagers, coming to La Boite from May 24 to June 5, 2021.
These young Queenslanders, aged 12-17, make up La Boite’s Young Artist Company. They're real teens with real conviction, spanning diverse cultures, backgrounds and political views.
The Time is Now will make you sit up and pay attention as this young citizen's assembly advocates for a better future; delivering their first political speeches, threading dance, dialogue and surprise cameo appearances among each powerful presentation.
The inspired performance piece, developed in collaboration with trailblazing arts organisation All The Queen’s Men and co-created by Ari Palani, Aleea Monsour and David Burton, gives voice to a generation often silenced or dismissed.
The Time is Now is an entertaining and exhilarating exercise in the power of energy and ideas, and demonstrates once and for all that children should be seen and heard.
One stage, one microphone, countless young voices demanding to be heard. Welcome to the future.
