Queer PowerPoint Live! : Outlines 2023
Digital Originals • 1h 35m
This performance contains adult themes and strong language.
PPT meets LGBTQIA+ as the corporate world’s snooziest presentation software gets a joyous queer makeover in this hit experimental performance from interdisciplinary artists Xanthe Dobbie and Harriet Gilles. Inviting artists to explore their passions and nerdiest obsessions, Queer PowerPoint is an alternately playful, hilarious and totally serious exploration of pop culture as seen through the staid lens of everyone’s favourite archaic slide show. For their Sydney Opera House Outlines performance, Dobbie, Gilles and special guest artists will transform the show for the livestream space, giving audiences the chance to participate in their wonderfully queer deep dive down pop culture’s infinite rabbit holes.
