By Deb Cleland

Location

3/1 Dairy Road, Fyshwick ACT, Australia.

Description

Cahoots Lab 2023: process sharing

“Booj and Waa are the class clowns. While they did spend too long at school, it’s more that they now have to fend off accusations of being champagne socialists with the slightly limp rejoinder that could only really be considered part of the sparkling middleclass. They really would like to join the revolution, but are quietly concerned there won’t be nice cheese there. Maybe they could hold the revolution at their place instead?

Deb Cleland and Millie Rooney are in the midst of creating Booj and Waa. Join Deb in the physical manifestation of the overlapping thoughts involved in the creative process. The room that becomes Deb’s ‘brain’ will be a relaxed, open environment, where discussion and presentation can happen in a meandering way with plenty of time for the long-form chats that Deb values.

SUNDAY 30 APRIL | 12:00PM – 4:00PM | FLOW YOGA AT DAIRY ROAD, FYSHWICK | FREE EVENT | REGISTRATION NOT REQUIRED

DEB CLELAND
Deb Cleland (she/her) is an activist/ artist/ academic, with all the compromise and circuitous life paths that those slashes imply. She dabbles in interactive theatre and games, site-specific place-making and creative non-fiction, hoping to bring her research into social justice, inclusion and sustainability to life through writing and performance. Since 2012, Deb has been devising, directing and participating in ensemble work that asks questions about co-existence, co-operation and how to claim space as an unwelcome body of any kind.

Deb was a Cahoots resident in 2020.

Materials from Deb and Millie’s creative process including text, images and other goodies will be set up in the Flow Yoga space. You will be able to view all of the materials, chat with Deb about the ideas and offer your feedback. You can drop in anytime between 12-4pm and stay for as long as you like.

The process sharing will take place at Flow Yoga, which is located in Building 3 at 1 Dairy Road, Fyshwick.

Free parking is available.
