Couture
String Telephone Theatre Company (Australia)
An original piece making its international debut, Couture tells the
story of an aspiring playwright and seamstress, who is presented with
the opportunity to write for a major theatre company. Holding onto
ideals about the intrinsic value and meaning of art, the playwright
descends into a spiral of destruction fuelled by insecurity of not
looking the part and grappling with what should be used for inspiration.
The descent into madness is framed using discussions and visuals around
fashion and textiles, with an absurdist twist, to highlight the
overlapping complexities and issues found in the arts industry and in
fashion.
