Prepare to have your mind well and truly blown. A true celebration of life, VIVID tells the story of young R’eye, separated from her family and transformed into something not quite human and faced with a world that doesn’t make sense. This is a story of a search for freedom and having the strength to dance to the beat of a different drum, but there is so much more to it than that. Featuring over 100 incredible artists in a variety of costumes that really need to be seen to be believed, this is a true explosion of colour and creative magnificence. An international team stretching from Berlin to Melbourne has worked day and night to put this show together, a coruscating extravaganza that asks the question — who can you be?
