| Description | The performance style of PRIME TIME was more actor-focused than previous Handspan works, its key imagery in striking futuristic costumes and its message conveyed through comic mime and song interspersed with live dialogue banter between the actor/characters and Technocrat Cat (TC). The adolescent heroine enticed into the world of television by TC with promises of fame and fortune, was manipulated by a money hungry media-controller until she rebelled and was thrown out. PRIME TIME was devised by final year Rusden State College students and produced and presented by Handpan Theatre for seconda | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
