Planning is underway for the 2007 Feast Festival – Adelaide’s Queer Cultural Festival. Registration of events is now open. This year the Festival will run for two weeks from Saturday 10 November until Sunday 25 November.
This is Feast’s Festival’s 11th year and once again it is an open access arts festival where any artist or company who consider their work appropriate for a queer festival can register an event. The Festival includes theatre, cabaret, film, visual arts, literature, music, drag, forums and many community events. Works are included from South Australia, interstate and overseas. Feast also provides support for emerging and risk-taking artists.
Daniel Clarke, the artistic Director of Feast, announced this year’s theme – LOVE.
‘Love is a theme that we can all connect with. It is a theme that offers a variety of ways in which the community and artists can respond – it is a theme that the queer community can dissect, celebrate, discuss and debate. It is also a theme that all people can relate to, but a theme that allows LGBTIQ community to celebrate the diverse and wonderful ways in which it loves’.
Artist who register events are encouraged to consider the myriad of ways this theme can be explored, such as: Love of your Sexuality, Love of your Partner(s), Love of your Gender, Love of Sex, Love of Pleasure, Love of your Body, Love of your Mind, Love of Choices, Love of your Community, etc.
