DCA Grant to develop Soul Searching

Ludwig received the wonderful and exciting news this week that our grant application to the WA Department of Culture and the Arts was successful. This was an application to develop Cass’s Soul Searching into a full length work which we are doing in collaboration with the playwright and actor Humphrey Bower.

Humphrey is currently appearing in the role of Buckingham in Melbourne Theatre Company’s production of Richard III until the 12th of June.

We’ve had a lot of contact with the altogether brilliant harmonica player Dan Kaplan and will be using more of his music in the work as well as other composers and musicians to create an awe-inspiring soundtrack.

Shortly we’ll be putting a “rehearsal room” on our website where you’ll be able to spy on all our creative goings-on in the studio!
