For taking pity on humans, Prometheus the Titan will suffer brutal punishment at the hand of Zeus.

Gods and titans burst forth from the dusty pages of Greek mythology and bring to life this timeless outcry against tyranny.

Prometheus Bound is the only remaining part of the trilogy by Aeschylus - the father of Greek tragedy.

Rarely seen. Not to be missed.

“Tease is full of joys, laughs and excitement... It immerses the audience in a rich visual and audio experience.” Audience members 2010

Tease is an edgy and provocative assortment of dance, theatre, visual arts, comedy, multimedia and music presented and produced by Corrugated Iron and showcasing Darwin's best young and emerging artists. Last year’s season, also at Brown’s Mart, was a sell out each night and left audiences wanting more.

In 2011 performers will be presenting their own work – short ‘teasers’ they have been developing with creative director Alex Galeazzi. Highlights this year include a private eye, film noir style theatre piece, with a black comedy twist, a fusion of contemporary and classical Indian dance from Venaska Cheliah, talented young pianist Warren McGrath, a swarm of energetic dancers and Josie Baker storming up the theatre with her drag friends. In the Brown’s Mart courtyard, audiences will be treated to a vibrant and interactive visual arts spectacular from artist Sarah Pirrie.
