From the Heart

“Highly original, deeply metaphoric and emotionally powerful”

Michael Brindley – Stage Whispers

Using sound design and physical theatre, From the Heart reveals the stories of a group of homeless women with mental illness, living in the City of Boroondara.

From the Heart is an “affirmation, a morale booster and reassurance, an acknowledgement of the unacknowledged”. (Stage Whispers, Michael Brindley)
