THAT'S RACIST
That's Racist is a 10-15 excerpt of a play, that was shortlisted for the Midsumma Queer Playwiting Award in 2021.
Melbourne's Midsumma Arts Festival asked for submissions of a 10-15 minute excerpt from a new play for their annual Queer Playwriting Award. The work That's Racist, was chosen along with seven other works.
​
Performers Jessica Norsworthy, Shae Kelly, Jai Wright and Jamie Turner brought the play to life, performing the excerpt in front of a panel of judges and live audience at Gasworks Arts Park in February 2021.
​
Although not ultimately selected for the grand prize, the work's shortlisting was both humbling and inspiring. The work will now be turned into a short film by Presidential Productions.
