Part of the Feast Festival Just a Nibble Program of works-in-development, allowing artists to test out their work in front of an audience; it is hoped that this work will then be realised into fully fledged productions in future Feasts.
erect on stage, has been devised and directed by David Jobling; a saucy show and tell with some of Adelaide's most dynamic young actors presenting scenes from the Queer Australian Theatre in a rehearsed reading. Join Bartholomew Csorba, Nick Ely, David Jobling, Simon Lancione, Graham Self, Matt Scales and SONTAGE (try this link) as they present a live trattato to inform, engage and entertain you.
What is a trattato? It's a gathering where someone explains something.
Bart: Here's the thing-
David: I wanted to get erect on stage-
Graham: It's not what you think-
Nick: And then I say-
Bart: No you don't not yet; take a hold of yourself
David: Oi! I want to work on my hard bit for a moment-
Nick: Wanker!
Graham: You can't do that-
David: That's exactly why I wanted to get erect on stage
Bart: The reading-
David: -sorted.
