Toydeath!

---

Cult circuit bending band Toydeath re-appropriate children’s electronic toys and wear human-sized cartoonish costumes to create a unique stage show. Toydeath produce live music from their tortured treasure-trove of modified toys including guitars, talking dolls and alphabet apples resulting in a surreal deluge of colour and craziness. Toydeath is part  performance, part music and features hilarious toyworld pranksters: Big Judy, GiJoe and Supa Dad the seasoned artists who are naturally big in Japan and have delighted audiences at Big Day Out.

Spinning a Yarn

---

An intimate performance and installation event, featuring an entire knitted marine landscape installed onsite. Here, the Plastic Bag Ladies of the Sea Mrs Polly Mer and Mrs Polly Ester knit a plastic wormhole to another dimension as they recall the marine adventures of Monkey and Turtle.

 

Renny Kodgers

---

Best described by filmmaker John Waters as “the bastard child of Willie Nelson and Carlotta”, Renny's cabaret style performances combine the best of deep south hospitality with the sweat and pulse of a Sydney summer. This glamorous gent has working Sydney audiences for the past ten years with those lucky enough to experience his invective humor and dulcet tones holding the memory in their hearts and their loins forever!
