Join Australia’s favourite raconteur Ben Law for our rescheduled Twilight Talks, now on the Plane Tree Stage at 5pm. Living Gender brings together a dynamic panel to examine gender in contemporary Australia, featuring Yves Rees, whose memoir All About Yves: Notes from a Transition is a beautiful account of re-becoming and trans identity, Omar Sakr, a lauded Queer poet and novelist, whose thrilling writing examines notions of belonging when one’s identity is at odds with one’s family and faith, and Brandon Jack, a former AFL player who suffered greatly when he tried to conform to sport’s rigid notions of masculinity, and was liberated when he reimagined what it meant to be a man.
