The HotHouse theatre company located on the Victorian/NSW border in Wodonga has built a formidable reputation nationally as a small to medium theatre company that produces and presents high quality shows and provides valuable services to the creative industry and the local community. In addition to the yearly Subscription Season of plays there is a HotHouse Drama School, the Technical Theatre Training program and Black Border Theatre.
Audit Express is proud to be the program partner of the world premiere of It’s not for everyone which is a locally produced show by Jo Lancaster and Simon Yates (acrobat). In the traditional circus, old acrobats become clowns and continue to work into their dotage. It’s Not For Everyone will open with classical clowning routines that descend into absurdist renditions of brash humour, expressionism and finally, base humanity. Funny, shocking and utterly original, It’s Not For Everyone will mesmerise local audiences before taking the world by storm.
