SUMMARY:The Lifetime of Deaf and Deafblind 2 – A powerful Deaf-led celebration of language\, connection and identity
DESCRIPTION:Deafinite Connection returns to Fringe World 2026 with The Lifetime of Deaf and Deafblind 2 — a captivating new work directed by Peter Blockey\, featuring acclaimed Deaf performer Princess Nidera\, deafblind artist Eddie Szczepanik and a talented ensemble of hearing performers. \n  \nThrough Auslan\, visual theatre and expressive movement\, this evocative production shares personal and cultural stories from Deaf and deafblind experiences. It is a heartfelt exploration of language\, resilience and belonging — performed entirely in Auslan and English to accommodate for both Deaf and hearing audiences. \n  \nBuilding on the success of the original Lifetime of Deaf and Deafblind\, this new chapter features six original signed songs inspired by Auslan poetry\, developed by a Deaf-led creative team with an interpreter and hearing supports. The result is a vivid and inclusive theatrical work that connects communities through shared expression and artistry. \n  \n⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “A stunningly expressive and deeply human performance — a rare window into the Deaf world that leaves audiences speechless.” – FringeFeed Review \n  \n“This project is about Deaf people telling their own stories — our way\, our language\, our culture. It’s about visibility\, empowerment and sharing the beauty of Auslan with everyone.” – Peter Blockey\, Director \n  \nCreated with the support of Deaf Connect\, The Lifetime of Deaf and Deafblind 2 is a testament to the passion\, creativity\, and determination of the Deaf arts community in Western Australia. \n  \nAudiences can experience this powerful and inclusive production at Fringe World 2026. The show will be running on January 24th\, 25th\, 31st & February 1st at 4:50PM in The Hat Trick in The Pleasure Garden\, Russell Square\, Northbridge. \n  \n🎟️ For updates and ticket information\, visit: https://fringeworld.com.au/whats-on/the-lifetime-of-deaf-and-deafblind-2-fw2026

SUMMARY:Fremantle Biennale - Wednesday’s at the End of the World
DESCRIPTION:Date: 19th November at 7:00PM\n\n\nLocation: Sailing for Oranges – LEVEL 1\, 33 South terrace\, Fremantle\nDuration: 2 hours\nThis event is held indoors and undercover.\nThis is a ticketed performance. Latecomers will not be admitted. Please arrive 10 minutes before the performance start time.\n\n\nOver the past year\, theatre/music maker Max Barton has been gathering artists and audiences for a series of one-night-only apocalypse experiments — Wednesdays at the End Of the World. Each month\, in a new location across Walyalup\, four guest artists have responded to a different end-of-the-world scenario — AI takeovers\, meteor strikes\, judgement days and climate collapses — woven together into a live mixtape of music\, theatre and philosophical reflection.\n\n\nPlayful\, haunting and surprisingly hopeful\, these nights have been about facing the final curtain with humour and honesty\, then coming back to the present with fortitude and community spirit. Each event has asked: what do we hold onto when everything is falling away? What can we do together to hold off the inevitable?\n\n\nFor the Fremantle Biennale\, Barton assembles a stellar lineup of musicians and storytellers for a one-off panpocalypse finale. Set by the water\, it’s an invitation to sit together at the edge\, contemplate the worst — and make it to the other side of the night stronger.\n\n\nhttps://fremantlebiennale.com.au/event/wednesdays-at-the-end-of-the-world/?fbclid=IwY2xjawNuQK1leHRuA2FlbQIxMQABHllK57VUqE8L_NoTCf7alLh_xKWSd8n1-he9tAAJgCxAToR0aDHTKpOtevvS_aem_iqyilLFYyElSCS2mzrFf8Q
