Pony Cam, an award-winning experimental collective comprising Claire Bird, Ava Campbell, William Strom, Dominic Weintraub, and Hugo Williams, is at the helm of this groundbreaking project. Known for their unconventional approach to theatre, Pony Cam thrives on creating experiences that defy expectations. By subverting established forms, activating unexpected spaces, and inviting audiences into their work in unconventional ways, Pony Cam fosters moments where audiences are encouraged to question assumptions, find humor in self-reflection, and resist habitual responses.

This avant-garde spectacle is not for the faint-hearted, containing mature content, audience participation, physical movement, and sudden noises.

Supported by a City of Greater Geelong Community Grant, PARADISE LOTS promises to be an unmissable event that transcends traditional performance boundaries, delivering a unique and thought-provoking experience to the heart of Geelong.
