Overview
Created and performed by the exquisite and 'eco-sexually charged' showgirl Betty Grumble (Emma Maye Gibson), Love and Anger is part-cabaret, part-disco party and part-radical protest — and was last seen at the Griffin Theatre for a sold-out show during the 2018 Batch Festival. This time around, the encore performance will take over the theatre company's Stables Theatre from January 21–26 at 7pm each night, with an additional accessible show taking place at Redfern's 107 Projects on Sunday, January 27.
In the show, Grumble pushes back against societal norms and is set to alter the way theatre-goers consider themes of femininity, pleasure and the body. It also features music from popular queer band Stereogamous (Paul Mac and Jonny Seymour).
The Sydney-based performance artist has taken her highly lauded show all across Australia and over to Europe — with Love and Anger already performed at Fringe Festivals in Berlin, Glastonbury, Edinburgh, Perth and Adelaide, as well as at the Melbourne Comedy Festival, The Festival of Dangerous Ideas and The Bearded Tit. The show has also taken home a slew of awards including Innovation in Form at the 2017 Green Room Awards and Best Cabaret at Fringe World 2017 and 2018. Plus, Gibson has presented other works at Dark Mofo and The Sydney Opera House, just to name a few.
General admission tickets are set at an extremely reasonable price: $35 a pop, with $20 'Monday rush' tickets also available from noon on Monday, January 21. Love and Anger is a regularly sold-out show, so best to nab your tickets here.
