Description The Dead Ones explores death, memory, family and the power of objects through storytelling and photography. Margie Fischer's parents were Australian Jews who fled from Vienna to China to escape the Holocaust. After 10 years in Shanghai they came to Australia as refugees. Part obituary, part theatre, part slideshow, part lecture, part wake, part homage to William Yang, this life-affirming solo performance is teh first created by Margie Fischer since her critically acclaimed award-winning show The Gay Divorcee.
