Queer as Flux
 

The Sydney Opera House presents Queer as Flux as part of the latest instalment of its bi-annual season of UnWrapped. 

An intimate and uplifting performance by multi-award-winning artists Stace Callaghan (trans-masculine writer/performer) and Leah Mercer (director), celebrating transitions of bodies, hearts and minds via stories of gender, sexuality, spirituality, near-death experiences, dementia, dying and interspecies love. 

Fresh from critically acclaimed seasons at Brisbane Powerhouse and The Blue Room Theatre, Queer as Flux invites audiences to experience the world through the eyes of a grown-up tomboy, their Drag Queen Fairy Godmother and two wise old whales.  

Autobiography meets activism in this homage to queer ancestors who paved the way, not-so-queer folks who did their best and the finned and four-legged who depend on us. 

In a world where political debates often demonstrate a strange fear of personal change and transformation, Queer as Flux sets out to show that, really, we’re all constantly in a never-ending state of flux.

    Hamlet | Sh!tfaced Shakespeare
    This is not your dear old Grandmother’s Hamlet, it is your drunk Uncle’s, who remembers every Monty Python episode by heart.

    Dancing at Lughnasa | New Theatre
    A gifted embroider of words, Friel combines soft lyricism and hard meaning in his play, a tragical comical historical pastoral on a spree and spoiling for a spirited spar.

    Retrograde | Melbourne Theatre Company
    The script is based on a true story, although this dramatisation can feel somewhat contrived, with important assertions not interrogated, and credibility stretched as a result.
  • The Glass Menagerie | Melbourne Theatre Company
    This Glass Menagerie is top shelf, and while blessed with an extraordinary cast and the highest of production values, it will not meet with everyone’s measure of how this play should be staged.
  • The First Murder | Pinchgut Opera
    The First Murder | Pinchgut Opera
    In the care of Pinchgut Opera’s director, Erin Helyard, this music, formulaic as it indeed is in some respects, sprang off the page into an experience rich in emotions.
