Back to Back Theatre presents
Multiple Bad Things

8 Jan 2025 to 12 Jan 2025

From internationally acclaimed Back to Back Theatre

In a time like ours, in a warehouse that could be anywhere, three employees wrestle with a seemingly pointless task.  Struggling to work together, they grapple with questions of inclusion and identity, test the limits of their bodies, their cooperation – even their capacity to care. 

But Multiple Bad Things is theatre. It is not real. Yet in a world where self-righteously indignant voices often drown out the disenfranchised and vulnerable, it can feel very real indeed.

The internationally acclaimed Back to Back Theatre – winner of the 2024 Venice Golden Lion for Lifetime Achievement in Theatre – returns to Sydney Festival with a work crafted from the raw material that is all around us. After the global success of GANESH VERSUS THE THIRD REICH and small metal objects (Sydney Festival 2007), their provocative new work hits the Sydney Opera House. 

Come and see for yourself why Back to Back is a global leader in challenging assumptions of what is possible – on the stage and in ourselves.
