# Event Details

- **Event Name**: Only Bones – Daniel Nodder Fundraiser Show @ The Hannah
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 20 Jun, 2026 at 08:30 pm
- **Event Description**: One performer. One light. No words. No set. No props. All within 1m². 

This multi-award-winning physical theatre solo show returns to Te Whanganui-a-Tara / Wellington for ONE NIGHT ONLY, as a fundraiser show for their upcoming 25-show season at Edinburgh Fringe.

With only one light, 1m² performance space and a jelly-like body, award-winning Wellington based dancer-turned-clown Daniel Nodder (World of WearableArt 2025, Spoon Show, CRUSH THE BUG) creates an entire universe of ridiculous creatures, sounds and stories from almost nothing. Witness a nonverbal physical theatre odyssey through the cosmos - from the chaos of the Big Bang to the creation (and death) of the dinosaurs, a wibbly wobbly melting iceberg to a pair of singing kneecap divas. Mesmerising, intimate and absurd, this minimalist work bends minds, limbs and the laws of physics alike. With aspects of clowning, dance and captivating design by Te Whanganui-a-Tara locals Rebekah de Roo and Ben Kelly, Only Bones – Daniel Nodder explores the endless storytelling capabilities of the human body.

Only Bones – Daniel Nodder is the eleventh iteration of a series of shows grouped together under The Only Bones Project. Created by renowned circus and physical performer Thom Monckton (The Artist, The King of Taking), each version must adhere to a simple set of rules: one light, no text, no set, no props, no narrative, all within 1m²

These tight restrictions are designed to push each performer's skill and creativity to their limits and encourage them to not just think outside the box, but explore the space within it.
