Literary Live Art: Performing Place

It’s the job of the writer to ensnare their audience and embed their reader within the worlds they create. How do writers locate their reader in places, environments and contexts, and how does this affect a reader’s commitment to the work?

This event draws together artists working across diverse genres and themes, and plays with the form of the traditional reading by inviting the audience to curate their own pathway through a series of concurrent literary performances. Real and imagined, contemporary and historic, near and far – choose your own adventure, and explore how you can be transported by the writing and performances of different artists.

With: Adolfo Aranjuez, Mark Brandi, Lian Low, Magan Magan, Jennifer Porter, Vidya Rajan, Angela Serrano, Mia Wotherspoon. Hosted by Soreti Kadir.

Presented in partnership with Victoria University, with support from The Story Wines.
