In the intersection where politicians, magicians, and techno-ravers meet, Shamelessly Glitzy Work looks at lies and illusion, manipulation and the sheer power that comes with working a crowd. It is spectacular, hilarious, and terrifying.
 

Here, intimacy comes quick, but everything that is said is a lie. There are stories half told and facts contested, solos interrupted and smoke and mirrors that fail to hide anything. Magicians and ladies in suits smile while they trick you, then tell you it has all been for the best. You see levitating bodies and wet t-shirt competitions, bleeding heads and ridiculous light shows.

Shamelessly Glitzy Work was developed in Residence at Performance Space, CultureLAB, and Bundanon, and was originally presented as a co-production at Performance Space, Sydney. The work has toured to the Brisbane Powerhouse and Arts House in Melbourne.

See Shamelessly Glitzy Work at the OnEdge Festival in Cairns from 8-9 July 2010. Visit www.onedgeart.com for details.

"Shamelessly Glitzy Work... pokes at the dead remains of dramatic performance with a very big stick that is itself hugely entertaining. "

RealTime

"With sequined curtains, buckets of confetti, lasers and lumpy goop, post’s Shamelessly Glitzy Work is shameless in its glitz and fearless in its attitude."

Aussie Theatre website

"...Shamelessly Glitzy Work makes the shared experience of art a thing of joy in itself."
