Stripped back, speaking out, baring it all.
Taking place in the Wonderland Spiegeltent, the Just Saying Project (JSP) and Mackay Regional Council are partnering up to bring BARE to the Mackay Festival of Arts during the last weekend of July.
Topics including sex, body image, pleasure, pain, and female power will all be seen on stage, for two shows – 7.30pm Saturday, July 30 and 2.30pm Sunday, July 31.
This isn’t the first time BARE has hit the stage – the cabaret show debuted in August 2021 with two sold-out shows.
The creatives at the Just Saying Project have since revamped and redesigned the performance to relay the important message to the community, that women don’t have to be quiet.
Founder of the Just Saying Project, Fallon Drewett said that now more than ever, “women are making noise and they have found their power in not staying quiet”.
“BARE brings women together to share their stories – empower, entertain and educate on matters that have left a scar,” said Ms Drewett.
“Revamping BARE’s storyline for its second season has been a thrilling process – this event truly is a show that both women and men enjoy.”
BARE’s co-writer Sammie Mitchell said, “The delivery of this message is performed in a fun, entertaining and engaging way that will make your belly hurt from laughter.”
“We are bringing men and women together to show what the female body can really achieve, by having local performers baring it all on stage - baring their hearts that is,” said Ms Mitchell.
BARE is an 18+ event – tickets are available now at themecc.com.au.
