Brisbane Festival Presents
type-a-poet
Come enter the Temple of Poetry. Just you, me and my typewriter for ten precious minutes. Shhh...
Queensland Premiere
Like nothing you’ve ever experienced before, type-a-poet is intimate, immersive and entirely dedicated to you, the audience of one.
Sitting in silence with award-winning performer/writer Andi Snelling, you will be transported to another realm, where Andi will conjure an original poem for your soul on her typewriter - an inked gift for you to keep.
Part side show, part spiritual reading, type-a-poet is a magical, meditative experience that will heal the heart, bend the mind and explode time.
Returning to Brisbane following the success of her 5x award-winning solo show, Happy-Go-Wrong, out-of-the box Melbourne performer Andi Snelling is offering this raw, honed-in experience that is uniquely tailored to each visitor to The Temple. Set in a magical micro world amongst the busy outside world, type-a-poet marries Andi’s love of word wizardry with her talent for improvisation, in her ever-continuing pursuit of shared humanity through art.

Snelling has never met a form of performance beyond her. Typically atypical and always surprising. One of those crystalline encounters that linger far longer than events 10 times its duration.
