Huge congratulations from 7-ON to Lee Lewis who has just
been appointed Artistic Director of the Griffin Theatre Company.
I’m in Brisbane at the moment—this is Noëlle, BTW—and in case you are too, I’m
presenting a version of my performance essay Loose Gravel—a poetics this
Thursday 30 August at 4:00 pm at the Geoffrey Rush Drama Studio, University of
Queensland St Lucia campus. The piece lasts just over half and hour and it’s
free, no need to book.
Here’s some
info about the piece:
Loose Gravel—a
poetics is about gravel and its kin. About ripping stuff out of the ground,
and the language that moves in to fill up the gap. It’s a funny and
philosophical performance essay about uncertainty as a defining feature of
contemporary life. About the materials of the imagination, and the pitfalls and
rich disorder of being an associative thinker. It’s about crap places, and
growing up in a crap place whose best-known exports are Cliff Richard, Victoria
Beckham—and yes, gravel.
