It was a nice change that encouraged me to remain present and focus on the story unfolding and my interpretation of it. While the set is simplistic, its story is filled with passion and emotion told through physical movements and expression with beautifully composed accompanying music.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The desperation was confronting, emotive and thought-provoking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you are looking to explore a Fringe event that is unique, moving and engages your mind pulling you back to the moment, look no further than A Stone&#8217;s Throw.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">by Erin Jade <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Weekend NOTES<\/strong> 16 Mar 2021<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.weekendnotes.com\/a-stones-throw-adelaide-fringe\/\">Read the full review<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>A STONE&#8217;S THROW Comes to Adelaide Fringe<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/crossencounters.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/stage-photo3_Cross-Encounters-Credit-1024x768.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-857\" srcset=\"https:\/\/crossencounters.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/stage-photo3_Cross-Encounters-Credit-1024x768.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/crossencounters.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/stage-photo3_Cross-Encounters-Credit-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/crossencounters.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/stage-photo3_Cross-Encounters-Credit-768x576.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/crossencounters.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/stage-photo3_Cross-Encounters-Credit-1536x1152.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/crossencounters.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/stage-photo3_Cross-Encounters-Credit-2048x1536.jpeg 2048w, https:\/\/crossencounters.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/stage-photo3_Cross-Encounters-Credit-360x270.jpeg 360w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&nbsp;&#8220;Although the theme is philosophical, the performance is light in touch and has flashes of humour as it moves through and reaches an uplifting conclusion.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">by Stephi Wild<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>broadway WORLD Adelaide<\/strong> 26 Feb 2021<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.broadwayworld.com\/adelaide\/article\/A-STONES-THROW-Comes-to-Adelaide-Fringe-20210226\">Read the full article<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Melbourne Fringe: A Stone\u2019s Throw<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"775\" src=\"https:\/\/crossencounters.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/A-stones-throw-main-image_Cross-Encounters-credit.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-860\" srcset=\"https:\/\/crossencounters.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/A-stones-throw-main-image_Cross-Encounters-credit.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/crossencounters.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/A-stones-throw-main-image_Cross-Encounters-credit-300x233.jpg 300w, https:\/\/crossencounters.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/A-stones-throw-main-image_Cross-Encounters-credit-768x595.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8221; &#8216;A stone\u2019s throw&#8217; can be a short distance, or longer. Perhaps its malleability is the reason why it remains such a common idiom, even after five centuries. A Stone\u2019s Throw, by Cross Encounters, plays with this definition in a cross-cultural production featuring Chinese and Australian performers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A Stone\u2019s Throw may not have much in the way of narrative, but considering the audacity of its scope \u2013 let alone the challenges of performing digitally without the benefit of a live audience \u2013 it certainly provided plenty of atmosphere and entertainment.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">by David Collins<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Australian Arts Review<\/strong> 30 November 2020<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/artsreview.com.au\/melbourne-fringe-a-stones-throw\/\">Read the full review<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>A Stone\u2019s Throw<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"630\" height=\"310\" src=\"https:\/\/crossencounters.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/A-Stones-Throw_Cross-Encounters-Credit.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-859\" srcset=\"https:\/\/crossencounters.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/A-Stones-Throw_Cross-Encounters-Credit.jpg 630w, https:\/\/crossencounters.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/A-Stones-Throw_Cross-Encounters-Credit-300x148.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 630px) 100vw, 630px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;Three performers take to the stage. Dark and mysterious lighting creates a mystical aura as they move in unison, fluttering their wing- like-arms as they trawl across the floor with their backs facing the audience. They weave in and out, leaping with fluidity and strength as the story unfolds. This is a unique tale developed from traditional stories of the land, recreated into a cyclical life journey, set in a small Chinese village.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is a subtle yet upfront show that offers sorrowful yet beautiful encounters between rural people\u2026 It is a simple yet charming gesture that completes a part of the dramatic journey.
