Midsumma Festival 2025

Thirty-Six

So there's this party she's having. It might be a funerary rite or a birthday celebration, depending on your perspective. Either way she's wearing the dress, her first lippy, and she's making a special meal. The flowers keep coming and the candles get blown out. 
An international collaboration between two transgender writer/performers, UK legend Jo Clifford ('The Gospel According to Jesus, Queen of Heaven') and local emerging artist Bayley Turner, 36 explores the complex relationship gender diverse people have with aging, mortality, grief and growth. 
Directed by Kitan Petkovski ('The Inheritance'), with set and costume design by Bethany J Fellows, lighting design by Spencer Herd, and sound design/composition by Rachel Lewindon.
