Read to Me: live graphic storytelling
National Library of Australia
Join the National Library of Australia for an evening of genre-defying stories with big pictures from national and local comic makers and graphic storytellers Gabriel Clark, Fionn McCabe and Evie Hilliar.
This event is presented by Read to Me, the influential Sydney-based, live graphic storytelling event that for 10 years has been platforming the art of comics and graphic storytelling to national and international audiences.
Featuring true stories about bathrooms or funny stories about death, this will be an evening of diverse and intimate storytelling reflecting the variety of stories found in the collections of the Library.
It's on Friday 13th. What's the worst that can happen?
Read to Me is an artist-run project that puts the illustrated story in front of an audience. They celebrate the art of Australian graphic storytellers by presenting their work to live audiences. From a library to a theatre, to a scout hall to the stage of a dive bar, Read To Me can turn any venue into intimate places where audiences genuinely feel they are being 'read to' one-on-one.
