Australia's pre-eminent physical theatre company.

Stalker makes high quality contemporary physical theatre in Australia across a range of cultural, social and political contexts, regions and nations, and delivers its work to extraordinarily diverse audiences. Its striking physical and visual productions communicate powerfully and imaginatively far beyond the constraints of traditional theatrical contexts. Drawing on contemporary dance, new circus, martial arts, innovative approaches to dramaturgy and inter-disciplinary and inter-cultural practices and processes the company brings a challenging new approach to physical performance.

Stalker produces a portfolio of distinct works that range from small, mobile street theatre productions to large site-specific outdoor work and both intimate and large-scale indoor works, as well as a series of ongoing masterclasses.

Stalker Theatre

David Clarkson co-founded Stalker Theatre in Sydney in 1988. Since that time Stalker has gone on to become one of Australia’s leading internationally touring physical theatre companies, renowned for outstanding, innovative inter-disciplinary, physical and visual theatre performances seen throughout Asia, Europe, South America and Australasia. Clarkson has had over 30 years experience as a physical performer, devisor, director and producer.

His work has varied between solo performances, professional ensemble work, large and small scale community outreach projects and Olympic Opening Ceremonies. His current ongoing research is in the use of 3D interactive technology in live performance.
