24.01.2022 Our Ten Days' 2017 program saw the appearance of the Acoustic Life of Sheds for a second Festival, where rural life blended with music from Lucky Oceans at Table Cape and many more across the NW. The Season, written by Aboriginal Tasmanian Nathan Maynard, celebrated the long time tradition of mutton birding on the Furneaux Islands. A family favourite from Terrapin Puppet Theatre, You And Me And The Space Between, combined cartoonist Tom O'Hern, actor Jane Longhurst and puppet...eer Felicity Horsley in a story of a child's imaginative mind saving the island. . . . . . #tendaystas #tasmania See more

18.01.2022 Exciting news! Australian Plays has announced their latest Red Door publication The Mares by Kate Mulvany. The Mares premiered at Ten Days on the Island 2019 and was commissioned by Tasmanian Theatre Company. The work was written in response to the current climate of gender politics. Mulvany’s physical, prescient and poetic new work is wrought with grief and yet brimming with wry humour. More info below! ... #tendaystas #tasmania See more

17.01.2022 Our 2015 program started with the Burnie Print Prize a national acquisitive competition, highlighting contemporary printmaking all the while recognising the historic role paper has played in the Burnie community. The Body as a Riddle combined dance, theatre and audience participation in a work created by award winning Portuguese choreographer, Madelena Victorino and Tasdance. And do you remember Blue Angel?
