Melbourne's masters of precision absurdity perform both live and virtually
in this bizarre journey through cyberspace. In the super-reality of Ozone
City¹s Club MNBVCXZ Tonight, the audience are made Œstars without gravity¹
as they are uploaded into Binary Opera. With loudmouthed laptops, digital
divas, a heartbroken hacker and a wild soundtrack, this is a side-expanding,
mind splitting, 21st century performance experience.
 
The Goons meet Blade Runner and decide the future of theatre in this
unorthodox tumble through web-world.

A Digital Summer commission

and...
