Rubiks Collective: The Big Idea
25 September @ 6:00 pm - 7:00 pm AEST

What if one idea changed everything?
Journey through the sound of inspiration striking as Melbourne’s Rubiks Collective celebrates its 10th anniversary with a world premiere of The Big Idea – a genre-defying monodrama from Australian composer Matthew Shlomowitz and writer Vid Simoniti.
At the heart of the piece is a single character on the brink – a new idea blossoms, a life unravels, and we witness the tantalising chaos in between. Featuring celebrated vocalist and long-time Rubiks collaborator vocalist Lotte Betts-Dean, The Big Idea is a story of ambition and artistic obsession that spirals from bluest desperation into delightful absurdity.
