15—17 Sep
Considerable Sexual License
Brisbane Festival and Brisbane Powerhouse present
Part-disco, part-confessional, all-awesome.
Queensland Premiere
Come on in, slip into something a little more comfortable. Let all those inhibitions go, baby.
Proud Wiradjuri man Joel Bray and his remarkable team of collaborators take you on a flirty, filthy and passionate journey through the true history of sensuality, down under.
Rejecting the conservative straightness of sexual politics in Australia, this provocative dance-theatre performance blends cabaret, comedy and choreography.
Don’t believe what you’ve heard: the sexual revolution started well before the 60s!
