'Brisbane-born poet Michael Thwaites, winner of the prestigious Newdigate Prize and Kings Medal for poetry (putting him in the company of Judith Wright and Les Murray), left behind a body of work that grapples with the themes of his generation – the immensity of space, the terror or mortality, the wonders of nature and the legacy we leave. Director and grandson Robert Thwaites breaths new dimension into his verse in a performance of dynamic physicality, original music and powerful spoken word.'
