Xmas

Christmas was an enjoyable day on Brad and Jess's breezy balcony. A huge turkey was the main feature of a delicious banquet presented by the indefatigable Mrs Marsellos.

Clinton,  Phill and Marlies and I were the lucky guests for this occasion.  It was a very relaxing day.

We talked about the year ahead, and it appears that  Dirty Linen will have a another very busy year. Starting in January with the 'Bundaberg Bohemians not Bogans' exhibiton', curated by Brad and Jess. This exhibition will showcase the works of established artists from Bundaberg.  The exhibition will be held in Brisbane, but Brad has suggested that it also shows at DL on its return to Bundaberg.

I think this is a good idea, so stay tuned for more information.

The end of January, start of February  Di Wills will be presenting an experimental play titled 'Dead Matron's Society'.    I am very excited about this event.  It will combine  theatre and visual arts.  I hope it will be the start of many of this type of  event.

In April Brad will have an exciting photographic exhibition of new works.  This will present works that have that unique Marsellos  signature.  A treat for all.

There are  a couple of other events coming up that are yet to be finalised, so stay tuned!

Talk art soon!

Dead Matron's Society

Local writer Di Wills came to Dirty Linen last week to discuss a project she has been developing, titled 'Dead Matron's Society'. 

The concept: A stage play that examines a group of women 'stuck' after experiencing sudden and unexpected deaths, and how they now fill their days. The play examines the value of women's friendships, both now and beyond. 

Artists will be a part of this collaboration, and I am excited that this play will take place at Dirty Linen  in approximately 3 months.

I will work on some digital projections for this event.

Di will be blogging the experience and you can find her page at the following link:
