WINNER: Silver Ovation Award, National Arts Festival 2015

Award winning Father, Father. Father! is a devised theatre piece created by Roberto Pombo, Joni Barnard and Racheal Neary, directed by Toni Morkel. The show follows the story of three sister, locked in the basement, awaiting the return of their father. And a big black horse. 

“The evolving metaphors and symbolism of this ridiculously quirky fantasy, with a menacing twist, underpin a performance piece by three gifted young artists who are creating a zany style and rigorously theatrical language” (Sichel, A. 2014. The Artchive).

Audience Responses

It was a bit weird. Perhaps I'm not abstract enough but the question of Sonja being the Dad - & having a thing with one of them? Your entire life, your perceived older sister is not your sister. .. a bit too unbelievable. Having said all that - the acting was brilliant, set well placed. An hour of escapism.
