Get ready for The Deadline Party: The Great Unveiling! It's a live online event featuring folks who've spent six weeks wrestling with their own creative blocks, like procrastination, avoidance, and overthinking, to finally bring a new project to life.

Local creatives on the South Coast and beyond have spent six weeks collaborating and bravely deciding to put their projects front and centre.

Now, you get to see what they made in this special event: THE DEADLINE PARTY!

This is a chance to watch new creative work land across art, writing, theatre, film, music, and mixed creative practice.

WHAT YOU’LL SEE

Each person has 5 minutes to present their project.
They’ll share what they made, why they made it, how it was made.
All so you can enjoy the new projects, get the first look at some new creativity, and find out how different creatives used the last six weeks to their best advantage.

THE DEADLINERS

Lisa — The Goldfish of Aker, a theatre piece set in rural 1980s Australia with myth sitting underneath the everyday

WHY THIS MATTERS

Because most creatives don’t struggle with ideas, they struggle with making them a priority, finding time, and finishing them.

This is your opportunity to celebrate creatives who have come together to hold accountable to the creative process. And learn how they put their best foot forward.
