About Rhubarb! 46 


At Rhubarb! 46, Festival Director Ludmylla Reis has curated a series of 13 quintessentially unhinged Rhubarb! works by a mix of local and international artists, featuring everything from operatic pole dancing to Daoist meditation.

We're excited to welcome two complete international works to the festival this year in partnership with PuSh Festival: Transpophagic Manifest by Renata Carvalho (Brazil), and OUT by Ray Young (United Kingdom). 

As usual, the shows you’ll see at Rhubarb! are all "the Rhubarb versions” of these works — unique iterations of performance pieces that will never be the same again. At Rhubarb! 46, our programming features each show only once. 

Capacity is limited for the festival so get your nightly passes ASAP — this year's festival will bring unhinged intensity and an eclectic performance experience that is truly unique to the world of Rhubarb!
