We are so happy to partener with Wollongong Workshop Theatre and South Coast Writers Centre to bring you the inagural Write About Now Festival!!
Write About Now is a small, concentrated festival dedicated to creative conversations through writing and art that speaks directly to the present moment. The festival prioritises immediacy, relevance, inclusion, truth, and boldness. It is a space for writers, performers, audiences, and the broader community to respond to ‘now’ socially, politically, emotionally, and personally, and to do so together.
This is not a showcase of literary and performance work. It is a contribution and communication point for artists and contributors and a gathering point where the community can meet them. A place to put language on its feet quickly and honestly, and to discover what it does in a room full of people who are actively engaged in the conversation.
We have so many ways to get involved as well as spectate, check out the festival guide for details on everything going on!!
Our launch night and performance evening are FREE but require bookings. tickets below!!
