A THOUSAND DOORS, A THOUSAND WINDOWS

Inspired by reminisces of journeys to foreign lands, the tale explores the dream of belonging.

Described by The Australian as the High Priestess of Harmony Xenia Hanusiak delivers the invisible voice of the stranger in a new land, seeking visibility in the middle of nowhere.

Where is home? Constantine Koukias' haunting landscape inspired by contemporary and ancient forms seamlessly echoes Cazerine Barry's inspired video.

Soprano: Xenia Hanusiak,

Music: Constantine Koukias, Kaija Saariaho

Video: Cazerine Barry

Direction: Deborah Leiser-Moore

Written and devised by Xenia Hanusiak.

This critically acclaimed work has been described as powerful and engrossing.

It is both personal and universal, contemplative and arresting, involving and abstracting.

"Dreamed I saw a building with a thousand floors, A thousand windows and a thousand doors, Not one of them was ours my dear, Not one of them was ours." (W. H. Auden, Twelve Songs)

The tour of A Thousand Doors A Thousand Windows is proudly supported by kultour - an initiative of the Australia Council - touring Australian multicultural performance and visual art.
