We Are Lightning!

Acclaimed Australian artist Joseph O’Farrell (JOF) and Sam Halmarack combine theatre with the fist-pumping euphoria and power ballads of a stadium gig, in We Are Lightning!, a darkly comical work that reflects on the importance of communal spaces where people can come together and express themselves.

Gloucester Guildhall is transformed into a music venue on the brink of closure. A teen band, a community choir and ageing rockers join JOF’s drums and Sam’s guitar to mark and protest its demise, leading audiences through a strange ceremony and heartfelt celebration of how music shapes the lives of the people that play it.

Join for the last chance to come together and be saved by music.
