“We talked, screamed, jumped for cover and laughed openly in our little car”
Drawing on drive-in theatre traditions, Throttle is immersive dance-theatre viewed from the safety of your own car. It’s lit by your headlights, heard through your car radio and seen through your windscreen. Frightening and funny in equal measure, Throttle takes audiences on a joy ride through the dark underbelly of Aussie car culture.
