The Museum of Local History


'The Museum of Local History' offers audiences a deeply immersive, intimate journey at locations chosen as uniquely regional. A platform for a small audiences set within a site to offer intimate audience experience, a sense of the moving-body & evoke awareness of our shared history & humanness. ​​

Estuarial 2022
A movement study 
inspired by the sensorial & visual experience of the landscape. As our awareness oscillates, we see figures morph from human forms to feathered creatures at the water’s edge. 
Estuarial was a performance at the old punt site crossing at Bega River mouth, Mogareeka Estuary which was commissioned by Navigate Arts for the Regeneration project 2022. 

Conceived and made by Lee Pemberton with dancers Patrick Messmann & Beth Lane

Scotts Hut
Scott's Hut is a dawn performance that draws us into landscape and historic architecture. performed in Nov 2020 & Apr 2021. The process used a 1890's hut as a research site and performance space. It is a responsive study where we have physically mapped & explored the land, structure & story of the site. Intrinsically we sense & imagine the ghosts & traces of experiences that have happened there. 

​The work is conceived and made by Lee Pemberton & Olivia McPherson
​Supported in development by Merrigong Theatre & Performing Lines digital residency
