Trapper by Arena Theatre Company

Studio John Fish was engaged to produce a theatrical trailer of Arena Theatre’s ‘Trapper’ which premiered at the Arts Centre, Melbourne in August 2017. The play went on to tour at the Sydney Opera House in April 2018.

“Four performers battle each other inside a series of giant sculptural machines, hoping to discover the proof of free will. Using slam poetry and demanding physical agility, the performers make their arguments from within the body of the machines – simultaneously asking; are we in control or being controlled? Trapper investigates the complex relationship humans have with the systems we embrace, inhabit and fight against.”
