On 31 March, 2011, a flashmob of 400 people with and without disabilities descended on Federation Square.  Conceived by Rawcus and directed by Kate Sulan (www.rawcus.org.au) and Clair Korobacz (www.onestepatatimelikethis.com), the flashmob involved individuals and groups from across Victoria.  Rawcus is an ensemble of performers with and without disabilities based in the City of Port Phillip.Thanks to all the many wonderful people who made the flashmob such a success.

The Flashmob is part of the YouTube Project, a series of short films by Rawcus and FOG Theatre made for YouTube broadcast.  Funded by the Department of Human Services (Southern Region), the films are being made throughout 2011.
