Men of Letters
Much-loved lit event Women of Letters is doing a slight, temporary rebrand, simply by dropping their first syllable.
Overview
One of Australia's favourite lit events, Women of Letters, is doing a slight, temporary rebranding, simply by dropping their first syllable. Men of Letters brings to the Zoo stage a huge selection of Brisbane's — hell Australia's — best male talent as they rediscover the lost art of letter writing.
Included on a jam-packed lineup are a wealth of the titular men-folk, including award-winning feature journalist Trent Dalton, author and bookseller Christopher Currie, and poet Sam Wagan Watson. They'll be demonstrating their winning ways with words, and they're not alone.
Also having a hand in the day's letter writing are Jason Whalley of Frenzal Rhomb, Federal Labor Member for Grayndler and Shadow Minister for Transport and Infrastructure Anthony Albanese, journo Andrew McMillen, actor Hugh Parker, barrister Andrew Boe, chef and Esquire owner Ryan Squires, Brisbane Powerhouse artistic director Kris Stewart, and comedian Damien Powr. Each will be penning and reading a letter to 'The Woman Who Changed My Life'.
Doors open at 3pm, and wine, cheese, stamps and envelopes are provided. Grab your finest quill and head along.
