Family Journey - Anton Lachky / DOT504

“We’ve been told: You are a family. Stick together and you’ll be the happiest family ever. The happiest family in the world.”

A quirky and mysterious travelling family of misfits has arrived for an evening of story telling and rituals. Connected only by the mysterious teachings of ‘the man’. This surreal and fantasy-like work, follows the journey of this family as they share stories, perform strange rituals and find their way home.

FAMILY JOURNEY premiered in Prague, Czech Republic in 2017.

My role was that of the family leader, instigating rules and rituals. I also narrated throughout, sharing our family story with the audience.

The show features 4 professional dancers and a digital art sketch as a back drop, which develops with the performance.
