ARCO Snr
CPAC Studio
In ARCO, award-winning performer Adam Kelly welcomes audiences into a world where a fish can be your best friend, imagination has no limits, and optimism is an act of courage.
Funny, heartfelt and unexpectedly profound, this remarkable solo theatre performance explores the universal desire to belong, be understood and live life on your own terms. Through stories, drawings, movement and laughter, Adam shares his unique perspective on love, friendship and finding your place in the world.
ARCO Snr (15+) is an uplifting and honest reflection on rejection, celibacy, hope and self-acceptance, reminding us that maybe the goal isn't to change who we are, but to embrace it.
Join Adam and Finbar for a life-affirming journey that will stay with you long after the final bow.
CPAC is also presenting, ARCO Jnr suitable for families and children aged 7-12 years.
ARCO Snr by Adam Kelly and James Berlyn is produced by Performing Lines WA and proudly presented by Cairns Performing Arts Centre.
ARCO Snr was originally produced by WA Youth Theatre Company.
This project has been assisted by the Australian Government through Creative Australia, its principle arts investment and advisory body.
