Stroma - Essential Experimental 2

$20/25 plus booking fee.

Back by popular demand, Stroma explores the hip laneways of musical experimentalism. Composed theatre, musical bodies, comic strips, and a bit of on-the-fly bandaging — this offbeat, quirky set of works will leave you thinking long after the show is over.
