Radical and rambunctious, explosive and gritty, Heart go... BOOM! takes Massive Company’s iconic theatrical style and kicks it up a gear. Heart go... BOOM! introduces Cypha Clark, Ingrid Lee, Molly Curnow, Talia Pua and Tane Te Pakeke-Patterson, five electric actors capturing the spirit of youthfulness through heart-felt physicality.

Reflecting the diversity and passion in the world around them, the cast’s own experiences have inspired Heart go... BOOM!, a devised physical theatre production that champions brave and inventive storytelling interwoven with spoken word, movement, and compelling design. Bursting with big feelings, Heart go... BOOM! is a jam-packed, joyous celebration of life.
