Nov 13th, 2009 : The Border Project needs your help! ShoGo

Adelaide's youthful theatre troupe The Border Project are joining the Sydney Theatre Company's permanent ensemble, The Residents, for Vs Macbeth,  part of the 2010 Adelaide Festival, a show that incorporates every accident, error and catastrophe that occurs from the first rehearsal to the final curtain.

The STC's artistic directors, Cate Blanchett and Andrew Upton, are fans of the collaboration. "We're thrilled that The Residents will be in cahoots with this ingenious bunch for Vs Macbeth … It seems apt that they come together to explore a play full of chance and destiny. Wilfully taking on theatre taboos and incorporating every accident, error and mishap that will undoubtedly befall them.''

The members of  The Border project would love to know whether you have ever seen (or been in) a production of 'Macbeth' where something has gone wrong – be it major or minor! They would love to include an accident you've witnessed in their production. Please write on their facebook wall to tell them your story, and they’d love you to invite anyone you know to join this group and tell us their story. The more accidents the better!
