The Flying Nun

The Flying Nun is a showcase of the outcomes from Performing Arts residencies with Brand X at the East Sydney Community and Arts Centre.

By its very nature, we celebrate the fringe, alternative and contemporary counter-culture, contributing multi-disciplinary creative risk-taking to the East Sydney Creative Precinct. Come and be the first audience to witness new work fresh out of the rehearsal room and by doing so, support Independent Artists with income and feedback to propel the work on to stages across Sydney.

WHERE THE FETū ONCE LIVED

Friday 24 June @ 8pm
Saturday 25 June @ 7pm & 9pm

The disappearance, a mystery. The starless night, a reminder. Against the backdrop of Western Sydney, a celebration of the extraordinary in the seemingly ordinary lives we live. A healing and reconnecting back to the things that matter.
