The Blind Date Project

Unpredictable, dark and funny, The Blind Date Project is an event to which everyone can relate – a blind date between two people who have never met and who are desperately in need of connection. Australian Film Institute award-winner and TV actress Bojana Novakovic (Rake, Shameless) plays Anna – a woman waiting at a karaoke bar for her date to arrive. That date is a different performer every night. She has no idea who she is about to meet or what is about to happen. Devoid of scripts or rehearsals, this is an entirely improvised, intensely personal interaction – including karaoke numbers – in front of a crowd of willing participants. Guided live via text messages and phone calls by the director, and interspersed with random songs, each date promises to be as bizarre as it is dangerous. No two shows are ever the same. Things may turn out to be humiliating, tender or totally hot.
