THISPOPBABY and Theatre Works present

The Year of Magical Wanking

Written and performed by Neil Watkins

"THISISPOPBABY are not so much cutting edge, as creators of a whole new edge in itself." - The Sunday Tribune

Neil Watkins has wanked more than is healthy...allegedly. One of Ireland's most exciting artists and incendiary performers; Neil is a force of nature, a maverick, a 33-year old homosexual with a Jesus complex. On orders from heaven, this is Neil's journey through the wilderness of queerness; from Catholic Ireland to the cruising bars of the world, from suburban Head Shops to Native American ceremonies.

Named as Queer Notions 2010 Festival Highlight by The Irish Times, and with a critically acclaimed sold-out season in the Dublin Fringe Festival, this is a brave and heartbreaking exploration of porn addiction, destructive sexual behaviour, Catholic guilt and family heartbreak. Written in hypnotic verse; it is both a profound personal journey and a furious state of the nation address.

Aren't you tired of being positive? Theatre Works and Ash Flanders present

Negative Energy Inc.

Aren't you tired of being positive?

If you're not angry, you're not paying attention. Angry homosexualist Ash Flanders takes no prisoners in this petty, unwarranted attack on the modern world. Accompanied by pianist and actual 'talent' Dave Barclay, Ash will speak, sing and mince in a desperate attempt to prove life is an exhausting and thankless task. Think Jean-Paul Satre, with a 30-inch waist...and a Cher wig.

"Ash Flanders doesn't miss a beat" - The Herald Sun

"if you love the likes of Taylor Mac and John Cameron Mitchell and iOTA, you'll love Ash Flanders. Don't regret missing a dose of this wonderful negativity." - Aussietheatre.com

Jeffrey Solomon's award-winning solo play is inspired by his mother's poignant, and often hilarious, journey out of the closet as the parent of a gay son; within the context of a tightly-knit Jewish community. Theatre Works and Jeffrey Solomon present

Mother/SON

Written and performed by Jeffrey Solomon

Winner: Best Performer Leading Role: 2010 Absolut Gay Theatre Festival Dublin

Winner: Best Solo Playwright and Best Male Solo Performance: National Gay Theatre Festival (U.S.)

Jeffrey Solomon's award-winning solo play is inspired by his mother's poignant, and often hilarious, journey out of the closet as the parent of a gay son; within the context of a tightly-knit Jewish community. The story traces her evolution from grief stricken mother turning up at a support group for parents of gays, to marching with her son in a pride parade. Critically acclaimed on both sides of the Atlantic, Emmy nominated writer-performer Jeffrey Solomon plays both mother and son in a performance the Yorkshire Evening P

Candy Royalle's new show 'Stories by Starlight' sees the underground poet hit the festival scene hard in 2012 Underground poetry is an emerging trend across the nation, driven by generation X and Y wordsmiths with cutting insight and great stories to tell.

One of the must-see stars of Australia's alternative poetry movement is dreadlocked, colourful and eclectic poet Candy Royalle.

A young veteran of the festival scene, Royalle is revered by modern day poets and word-loving audiences for her powerful verse and deep voice. They lend an almost soulful edge to her performances.

Royalle's new show Stories by Starlight sees her hit the festival scene hard in 2012 - kicking off at Melbourne's Midsummer Festival (18 - 21 January at the 1000 Bend Gallery) and the Adelaide Fringe Festival (1-4 March 2012, 9pm Queens Theatre).

Those lucky enough to see her pop-up preview at a fittingly illegal venue in Sydney in 2011 - says the show packs serious poetry punch.

Adrenochrome Productions has a very special event locked in for October. Not only will we be serving up the same, awesome contemplative and energetic dark sounds from the deeper side of dubstep, we're also bringing you the same sexy, and irresistible vibes of Glitch Hop. But that's not all. October sees the one and only Boot (Requiem Audio) step up to the decks and show us what the moodier sounds are all about.

Set times:

5pm: Ed King (Glitch Hop)

6pm: Loz Nonsense (Glitch Hop)

7pm: Scatterbrain (Dubstep)

Boot - http://soundcloud.com/boot

Boot is a multi-discipline musician and electronic music producer based in Sydney, Australia.

2011 sees Boot change direction and refine his sound further towards darker, more cerebral territory. Disillusioned with the more ravey dancefloor end of dubstep, Boot has found solace and influence in more minimal, spacier grooves, such as those from Kryptic Minds, Youngsta, Phaeleh & DJ Madd.
