Matilda Nomination

[BRISBANE, AU] Stephen Atkins and Zen Zen Zo co-artistic director Simon Woods share a nomination for a Matilda Award in the category of Best New Work. This is for the new interactive theatre piece “Sub Con Warrior 2.0″ which premiered in Brisabane, QLD in May 2008. The project was the result of many months of real-time and online collaboration between Atkins and Woods, culminating in a week-long creative development process in Dec 2007 before the piece went into rehearsal. The challenges of doing a promenade piece of interactive theatre, relying heavily on technology and integration of live and filmed segments rested on the shoulders of an extensive, talented group of artists. Sub Con Warrior 2.0 is currently slated for tour dates in Shanghai and Korea.
