Brink Productions

Christos Tsiolkas and Stephen Nicolazzo have collaborated on two productions that have shifted their creative practices. Together working on Merciless Gods and Loaded, these artists have formed an intergenerational partnership buoyed by their shared experience of being outsiders and migrants while negotiating class, anger, shame and politics.

HITS OPENS TONIGHT at the Space Theatre!
Do you remember your first gig, concert, or music festival? The first time you heard Nirvana? When your heart sped up, your knees went weak, and your body started doing things you could not explain?

HITS is a new Australian play with an all-South Australian team. But it’s also a love letter – from your teenage self – to that song, that artist, or maybe that person, who came to you at your most awkward and misunderstood, and set your soul on fire.

Your 15 year old inner self is begging you to go see it.

This Reconciliation week, we at Brink would love to share the work of our friends in Naarm, the diabolical and brilliant A DAYLIGHT CONNECTION, who are throwing a First Nations q***r theatrical event as part of Rising Festival. Playing from March 31st at Melbourne Town Hall, this celebration of Blak Futures and drag will be well worth travelling to.
A future-forward drag show spanning the ages—from the Big Bang(er), to the Paleocene, through the Beyoncé epoch and into the Blak q***r future that awaits us all.

ECLIPSE is an epic drag-off between two of Naarm's fiercest Kweens Cerulean and Stone Motherless Cold—a dazzling collaboration with A DAYLIGHT CONNECTION and special guests from across the multiverse.
