The West Australian – 13/02/2015 – Stephen Bevis
« ‘I’m looking forward to when the Little Girl wakes up, that first moment of her
waking up and beginning to walk around the city’ he said [Festival artistic
director Jonathan Holloway]. […] ‘It is something people remember with
fondness and huge emotion’. »
Launceston Examiner – 14/02/2015
« Perth has come to a standstill to witness the most epic artistic event in the
city’s history, with hundreds of thousands of people dropping everything to
watch a six-meter-high marionette walk CBD streets. »
The Australian – 16/02/2015 – Michaela Boland
«Giants take Perth by storm […] Emotions were high as people from all walks
of life gathered to witness the drama of Little Girl Giant and Deep Sea Diver
and attempted to decipher the ANZAC commemoration tale they were said to be
playing out. »
The West Australian – 16/02/2015
« Perth has never seen a weekend like it – three days when we gave ourselves
over, heart and soul, to a pair of oversized mechanical creatures who wandered
through the city while hundreds of thousands of us waited, craned necks for a
glimpse and applauded spontaneously. »
The West Australian – 16/02/2015 – Tim Clarke / Stephen Bevis
« And so, when the Giants who had entranced Perth came together with the
centenary of the Anzac legend that has helped define Australia, it was enough to
leave 400,000 people simultaneously silent and spellbound. They had come from
all over the city and beyond, and queued for hours – some even overnight – to
find a spot. »

« Les géants de la troupe nantaise Royal de Luxe ont cassé la baraque ce week
end à l’inauguration de l’International arts Festival of Perth (Australie) avec
1,4 million de spectateurs (pour 2 millions d’habitants). »
North Coast Times, 17/02/2015
“HAS Perth ever had a more popular pair of visitors than a Little Girl Giant
and Diver Giant? Royal de Luxe’s The Giants drew hundreds of thousands of
onlookers into the city across three spectacular days of what the travelling
French company call street theatre, but Colin Barnett confirmed it had been ‘the
event of a lifetime’ for WA.”
The West Australian – 20/02/2015
« According to report, 75 per cent of the population of metropolitan Perth saw
The Giants over three days, the stage centred on Langley Park. »
