A Bondi Festival 2024 event.

Queer PowerPoint is the cult hit experimental performance series in which Queer artists from Sydney are invited to explore and share an idea, current obsession, or ongoing fascination using that most staid and ubiquitous of programming tools – PowerPoint.  It’s a bunch of queers deep diving into highly niche content in a very gay way. 

Reclaiming and queering the corporate presentation from our straight capitalist overlords, creators Xanthe Dobbie and Harriet Gillies host this night of surprising stories, secret passions and starwipes; commissioning artists to create a new 10-minute performance lecture about absolutely anything – the only rules are they have to be queer af, and they have to use Microsoft PowerPoint. 

Lineup below plus music each night from DJ Stereogamous.

Queer PowerPoint
Queer PowerPoint is a collaboration between an all-queer Sydney-based team of creatives: performance maker Harriet Gillies, digital artist Xanthe Dobbie, creative producer Thom Smyth and AV manager Charlie Kember. Together they curate, develop, mentor, and produce the works of the programmed artists, ensuring support throughout the creation and delivery of their presentations.
