Enemies of Grooviness Eat Sh!t
Brisbane Festival and The Princess Theatre present
Hello Bodies... Let's have fun.
Queensland Premiere
An unshaming dance and a chance to allow ourselves to be seen. After a decade of playing within her spiritual access point and avatar, Betty Grumble - performance artist Emma Maye Gibson - re-emerges, bringing her latest offering back to the stage as a mantric wish. Enemies of Grooviness Eat Sh!t is poetry, tribute, a rock n roll performance art collision, love scene and revenge fantasy.
You are invited into a sensual, surreal and sublime experience of an all singing, dancing, howling and loving cabaret du Sex Clown.

#Artist
Emma Maye Gibson
Largely through the avatar/war mask/love letter/critter of Betty Grumble, Emma Maye Gibson engages her body as a medicinal site of performative catharsis, often in a genre smash of ritual physical theatre, cabaret, performance art and multi-media.
