RE/PLAY Features

Two digital offerings for one:

The live performance of DEMOLITION by Polytoxic
Documentary DEMOLITION: Staging a Protest by Kiosk Film and Polytoxic

DEMOLITION: Live
Tick Tick Boom…Time’s Up Motherlovers!
The detonator is rigged, the fuse is lit, and these fierce femme tradies are taking a sledgehammer to the system. DEMOLITION is an explosion of cabaret, theatre, and activism set to rebuild the world from the ashes-up filmed in front of a live audience.
DEMOLITION: Staging A Protest
Take a peek behind the curtain in this fast-paced yet intimate film documenting Polytoxic’s radical and inclusive process as they bring their production DEMOLITION to the stage. DEMOLITION: Staging a Protest is as high octane as it is politically relevant, highlighting why there has never been a more important time to bring visibility to underrepresented and intersectional stories.

Come for the protest. Stay for the party.
