Special thanks to Playlab Theatre, Doppelgangster (UK/AUS), and Backbone Arts for their support of this project.

My name is Ruby Donohoe and I am a Queensland performing artist. I’m making a new contemporary dance-theatre work called LUNG WATER as an artist-in-residence on Chambers Island (Gubbi Gubbi Country). If you’re an ocean swimmer, a sailer, or a kayaker I would love to chat to you as part of my research for the play!

About the work…
A woman who devotes her life to swimming around the world wakes up in a tiny hotel in Iceland with a melting glacier and discovers her lungs are filling up with the sea.

LUNG WATER will be performed on Chambers Island, Maroochydore in August/September 2021.
