The Streets of Barangaroo will host a number of collaborative events and performances centred around the concept of ritual, tapping into the human desire for connection, belonging and creativity via three unique activations: Two Strangers Walk Into A Bar; Dear Stranger; and Friday Ritual.
Two Strangers Walk Into A Bar is an immersive experience connecting two strangers through an audio guided tour. Conceived by Australian actor Tilda Cobham-Hervey, this intimate audio adventure invites participants to connect through playful and introspective exchanges and activities over the course of an hour. Taking place from 10am on Saturday and Sunday only from 14 – 29 September, tickets are $10 and the location will be announced soon.
Dear Stranger is a free activity taking place from 12pm – 2pm, Tuesday to Friday from 10 – 29 September, inviting participants to connect and understand another’s perspective through the intimate act of letter writing. Pen a heartfelt note to a stranger and receive an anonymous letter in return. Head to Exchange Square in Barangaroo during lunch to be a part of this joyful exchange and celebrate the unexpected connections and hidden stories that unite us all.
Unwind with Friday Ritual at Barangaroo on Friday 13, 20 and 27 September. From 10am to 5pm watch artist Matthew Aberline, with the Beautiful and Useful Studio, craft wind sculpted structures in the lobby of the International Towers, then follow the sculptures as they are paraded through the precinct from 5:15pm, accompanied by a community choir, to finally rest and be displayed at Waterman’s Cove at 5:45pm.
