Awkward Conversations
with Animals I’ve F*cked
Presented by Gavin Roach
One-night stands are awkward.
One-night stands with animals
are more awkward. And when
you’re as desperate to please
as Bobby, things get awkward
as f*ck. He’s just a guy with too
much love to give, and a burning desire to give it to consenting
adult mammals. Take a walk on the wild side (and
you really should) and delve into a bit of strange.
Tickets: $20 - $25 | 18+ (Recommended) | VIC | WA Premiere

Boys Light Up
Presented by The Blue Room Theatre
Summer Nights, Casey Elder and Tasnim
Hossain
Meet the bloke next door: he’s a
beast on the footy field, about to
land a promotion and in the market
for an engagement ring. But
behind this typical Aussie fella is
a Muslim woman. Literally. Boys
Light Up explores entitlement, sporting culture and violence
through a very unlikely vessel, and a little bit of AFL drag.
