Originally commissioned by the iconic La Mama Theatre, Dare to be Faceless examines the lives of refugees in Australia bringing the reality of their experiences to the stage in light of prevalent attitudes in our society to feeling for others and doing something about it. Honest, challenging and also hopeful, Dare to be Faceless encourages its audience to seek more knowledge, understand the journey of others and have an opinion that is informed and contributes to a better understanding of and to the lives of others.
Playwright Simon Tengende is a writer, director, performer and community cultural development practitioner originally from Zimbabwe. Whilst most of his work is dedicated to exploring the political realities of life in modern Zimbabwe, he also has a keen interest in the impact of the Australian society on African migrants.
Dare to be Faceless is a collaborative project of Artistic Merit for VicHealth's Arts About Us program, SheppARTon Festival, Riverlinks and La Mama.
