As part of Playwrights & Provocateurs, the Theatre strand of NT Writers Festival curated by Brown’s Mart Artistic Director, this will be a fantastic conversation from three prestigious artists.
This standout session will gather three First Nations artists: Jada Alberts (Black Light, winner of the Theatre Category at the 2025 NT Literary Awards), Yvette Walker (Seven Deadly Gins, runner-up of new Australian Play Award, Australian Theatre Festival in New York) and Ursula Yovich (Barbara and the Campdogs, 4 Helpmann Awards). They sit in conversation to explore the electric energy that comes from telling their own stories. This will be an exclusive look at the creative process, the lived realities behind their works, and reflections on why laughter can be a kind of resistance.
