I Love Todd Sampson (Redux)

July 12, 2016

“We all find comfort in different ways. There is no choice in who helps us. Life chooses for us.”

Laura is not doing too well – old friends are back to haunt her as she tries to hide from her past. During difficult years with her father, the young girl Billie constructed an alternative reality. She emerges as Laura, who is struggling with her life and trying to create a new reality. It is the voice of television identity Todd Sampson – co-creator of the Earth Hour initiative and commentator on Gruen & The Project – that brings comfort.

As she lurches between her real and imagined lives, her past, present and uncertain future merge, until she discovers Sampson bathing in her tub.

Such is the world of I Love Todd Sampson (Redux), a theatrical experience which integrates architecture, sound, film, equine science, and performance to expose the vulnerability of human nature.

With this unique and thrilling performance, The Living Room Theatre is celebrating 15 years of work and survival. The show is a collision of two of The Living Room Theatre’s most successful performances, Billie (2003) and I Love Todd Sampson (2013).

The cast includes Michelle St Anne as the protagonist Laura/Billie, a five year old Iberian horse Jazz, and his trainer Kate Fenner.

Set within a circuitous environment created by architectural muse Genevieve Lilley, onlookers are woven into the journey as they follow Laura/Billie through the many spaces, alcoves and corridors of 107 Projects. Along the way the audience joins Kate & Jazz for tea and toast, before finding them both sitting quietly on a couch deep inside the venue.
