The Absurd meets Surrealism. Cause meets Effect. Everything meets Everything.

Confused yet? Good. Welcome to Imagining Reality, the shadowy, brilliant world of BabyshadS.

Perception of Reality is the theme of this round of Commedia del Arte-esque theatrical song and dance. The audience will find themselves transported to a world where the characters ebb and flow in their respective journeys throughout both their mundane and imagined lives. Expect a pastiche of performative mediums that culminates in a chaotic yet ultimately welcoming exploration of "reality".

BabyshadS Milo Haigh, Sherilee Kahui and Jake Preval are joined on stage by musicians Hummel and SstimulusS' Emile de la Rey and accompanied artistically by David Randall Peters (pon), lit by Jimmy Sutcliffe and with Yetimon on AV, it's a team of Wellington's sexiest artists. Nice.

Fresh-ish from their sold out debut Watch This Space at BATS Theatre (Dance Your Socks Off - 2006), BabyshadS brings you another fantastic night of insight, bold entertainment and buffoonery!

"This is the stand out success and surprise of the festival. Humour, clarity, imaginative choreographically and with tight direction by Hannah Clarke, the three performers simply take the stage and the audience on an episodic adventure of their own ideas and responses." - Deidre Tarrant, Capital Times
