Being Said

  • Our friends at Metro Arts launch FreeRange today - their month-long creative development program. Pop on over and take a look:
  • Queensland Theatre Company and Tashmadada are presenting a Workshop with New York’s Witness Relocation. The workshop will be delivered over two weeks with a small group to create dynamic, genre-defying dance and theatre. If you're interested, get in quick as applications close on Monday 21 May:

    If you're lucky enough to have tickets, you're in for an awesome evening.
    If, like us, you haven't got tickets then here's a bit of what you're missing. Enjoy.
  • Let's start the week with a giveaway, thanks to our friends at the Judith Wright Centre of Contemporary Arts.

    We're giving away a double pass to see 'The Best (and Worst) of Queenie van de Zandt' at the Judy this Friday 18 May at 8pm. One of Australia’s best-loved cabaret and musical theatre stars, Queenie Van de Zandt, shares 21 years of bizarre theatrical experiences with hilarious anecdotes, insightful observations and beautiful songs.

    For a chance to win simply send an email to win@brisbanefestival.com.au with \"Queenie\" in the subject line. We announce the winner on Thursday morning. Good luck!
