"small metal objects draws attention to the people we habitually crop out of the picture." —Sydney Sun Herald (Australia)

An ingenious theatrical gem from Australia, small metal objects unfolds amid real shopping mall pedestrian traffic, the plot unbeknownst to passers-by. On raised seating with individual sets of headphones, the audience is wired in to an intensely personal drama as Gary and Steve, the kind of men who normally escape notice, play an inadvertent but pivotal role in an arranged transaction. As the intimacy and mystery of their situation develops, this spectacle of the ordinary becomes a sly and luminous depiction of everyday issues most of us take for granted. This one-of-a-kind experience has become an international and critical hit.
