Episode 5: The art of subversion; reel them in, keep their ears open, and hit them hard.
Celebrated for her one-woman shows throughout the 70s, 80s and today, Robyn Archer is a Cabaret Icon. Her committed multi-discipline artistic practice has expanded across form and content, to communicate political and social messages to the widest possible audiences. From Brecht to Piaf, her varied work forms her identities; from Queer musical artist to the first woman to direct a major Australian state festival of the arts.
Queering the Collection is created by Tristan Meecham.
Editing and audio production by Jess Fairfax.
Presented by Arts Centre Melbourne, in association with the Australian Performing Arts Collection and The Australian Queer Archives.
Special thanks to Ian Jackson, Ange Bailey and Nick Henderson for their curatorial work.
Portrait of Robyn Archer AM, 2024 by Mia Mala McDonald.
Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
