Verbatim
Tahi New Zealand Festival of Solo Performance
Written by William Brandt
Devised by Miranda Harcourt and William Brandt
“If is a very big word…”
Verbatim premiered in 1993 and broke new and important ground. William Brandt and Miranda Harcourt presented an uncensored insight, with first hand accounts, into the impact of violent crime in Aotearoa. This work still strongly resonates today. We might ask what has changed? Verbatim is an opportunity to interrogate the lack of social change.
With the expert skill of actor Renee Lyons we meet those interviewees. Lyons revisits her powerful solo performance from ten years ago.
‘The subtle power of Lyons’ less-is-more embodiment of each person brings us to the heart of their experiences, compelling us to interrogate the whys and wherefores and ask ourselves at what point in the causal chain an intervention might have made a positive difference.’ — Theatreview
‘a punchy piece of theatre’ — NZ Herald
