Presented by Rouse House Theatre Company.
Only the innocent need to be redeemed ... the rest just need therapy
'That's the trouble with people; as a race, we've never learned to distinguish between punishment and consequence. In the dark and middle ages, we thought everything was a punishment from God. In this enlightened time, we see everything that affects others as having an explicable cause and an inevitable effect; but we still see everything that affects us personally as a punishment from God - or whatever metaphysical construct we've chosen to accept. Why me?; what about me?; and just plain me! are the catch-cries of modern life. Somehow, I think the observation, 'There but for the grace of God go I" is somehow much more moving and reflective than "Thank fuck it wasn't me!" Don't you agree? We've not progressed in 700 years; we've just narrowed the focus of our enlightenment.'

![Something Blew [2010 Selected Works]](/img/clientupload/216wide/Something_Blue_216x148_1280298210.jpg)
Something Blew [2010 Selected Works]

Time: 8.00pm Tues to Sat / 2.00pm Sat Matinees
Preview: Wed 27th October @ 8.00pm
Price: Full $28.00 / Conc $25.00 / Grp 10+, Preview, Tuesday & Matinees $15.00 [plus booking fee]
Something Blew is a response to current lifestyle choices we have noticed. As young people who are in the midst of sexual relationships and finding companionship, we were intrigued by the old English proverb "something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue". For this work we have explored the facets of what the colour blue represents; Purity, love, modesty and fidelity. Something Blew invites us into a series of complications within relationships regarding confusion about sexuality, perversity, isolation and inner-turmoil.
Over the 60 minutes our seven dancers will unfold every portion of how modern society accepts sexual freedom, adultery and betrayal and how this contradicts, neglects and abuses the origins of the ancient saying.

Bill has lived a life amongst the rambling beauty of the old family home. Now he's gone blind, and his children Helen and Michael have returned for a few days to move him away. On the outside Bill is stoic, resigned to his fate, but inside he silently rages against the darkness. Drawn together in a garden full of echoes, the three discover tender memories of a shared past unwilling to release them. A moving, poetic ode to the human spirit and the memories that define us.
