Overview
After a day listening and wining and thinking and wining at the Sydney Writers' Festival, the last thing you'll want to do is go home early. So don't. Stick around for some clever, clever company — and sunset views — at Nights At The Wharf.
Starting from 6pm on May 19, 20 and 21, this year's series is promising robot experts, gold medallists, yoga instructors, philosophers, live music and poetry.
Creative couple Peggy Frew and Mick Turner (of The Dirty Three) will chat about living in an art-ing, music-ing, drawing, painting household — and play you a few tunes while they're at it. International stars Sarah Kay and Phil Kaye will perform the spoken word blitzes that have turned them into modern Lord Byrons, and Chicago-based singer and poet Jamila Woods will jump on stage.
Kick-on from 9.30pm each night, as the formidable Chaser team will take over the Hemingway Bar. Chris Taylor will be hosting a bunch of chats, featuring the likes of Midnight Oil frontman-turned-politician-turned-memoirist Peter Garrett, artist Ken Done, robot expert Richard Watson and gold medallist Leisel Jones, among others.
And while not necessarily on the wharf, Nights at the Wharf sprawls to over the road at Roslyn Packer Theatre, with a special doubler header from Magda Szubanski and George Megalogenis, and Adam Spencer's Night of the Nerds.
