Eve

Motherhood and a mental asylum, home maker and knife wielder. Caught somewhere between Oscar Wilde and Virginia Woolf, she is of one of Australia's most intriguing writers. Watch, wait and be transfixed as the curious world of Eve Langley steps out onto the Metro Arts stage.

It seems that many creative corners of Brisbane this month are rife with expressions and questions on women in contemporary society, and this production promises to add to the heap. Written and performed by theatre magnate and Matilda Award winner Margi Brown Asher, this one women show crosses time to look at what it is to stand in the in-between.

Eve is the story, part truth and part fiction, of a Langley's life and the pitfalls of being an artist, and a women,  in the early and mid Twentieth Century. She is suspended between the parchment she writes on, the walls of her home and, more so than either of those, the wanderings of her own mind.  Ash will step into Langley's shoes to bring to life this vivacious character and, in a world of wacky fashion statements and cyber punks, show us what going against the grain really looks like.
