The Disability Information and Resource Centre

One man sits in the dark, looking for his dreams…

One is an exploration of what it means to be alone.
Sometimes One is too many. Sometimes One is not enough.
One is the sum of all parts.

Artistic Director of Tutti, Pat Rix says, “One has been developed over several years with Daisy Brown and is a quirky and quizzical culmination of each performers’ cost benefit analysis of living alone. We are absolutely thrilled to be sharing One with an audience at last.”

On the 27th of May Tutti and the Mental Health Coalition of SA will present a forum and open panel discussion on Social Isolation and the performance ‘One’ with speaker and facilitator Geoff Harris, speaker Professor Leon Earle, Artistic Director Pat Rix and the panel of performers which includes: Joel Hartgen, Trish Ferguson, Jane Hewitt, Alistair Brasted and Jackie Saunders.

Discussions will range over the services available for support and pathways of support for those with a dual disability or issues of being isolated and consider the emotional and physical impact of feeling and living alone.

‘What are the issues of being alone and coping by yourself?’
“Who can you turn to in times of need?’

Date: 27 May 2011

Location: The Queens Theatre – Playhouse Lane, Adelaide SA 5000

Time: from 8.30 to 9.30pm (post performance)
