  • Luke Macaronas is an experimental performance maker, writer and producer from Naarm (Melbourne) of Greek and Serbian descent. Drawing on his training in Balkan folk dance, transcultural theatre, cabaret, ballet and butoh, as well as queer subculture and Christian ritual, his work seeks to revive theatre as an ecstatic intervention on the mundane. Luke is a member of the internationally acclaimed Japanese physical theatre company Gekidan Kaitaisha (Theatre of Deconstruction), and has a Bachelor of Arts, majoring in Art History and Theatre Studies from The University of Melbourne. He completed his Honours thesis with the Naarm-based theatre company Rawcus, researching the aesthetics of sensation and affect in disability theatre. He lives between Athens, Tokyo and Naarm.
