Details

Forced Entertainment is a group of six artists formed in 1984 and led by director and writer Tim Etchells. The Company continually develop new performance and theatre forms to find the most effective articulation of its ideas, to make work that is engaging, challenging and surprising, exploring the possibilities of what theatre might be. Go On Like This is a performance encounter between artist and writer Tim Etchells (Forced Entertainment) and the legendary percussionist Tony Buck, founder-member of Australian trio The Necks. The two artists share strong fascinations with the possibilities of both free improvisation and intensive repetition - Buck in the realm of mutating percussive elements and Etchells in the realm of looping language fragments. Celebrating 40 years of Forced Entertainment's experimental theatre, Go On Like This brings the performers together for an evening of loops and cacophonies, blurring the lines between language as sense and language as pure sound, creating something on the border zone between their two practices.
