Ground Zero Season 2
Friday 16 May from 7pm to 9pm Saturday 17 May from 7pm to 9pm
Over two nights, five Sydney-based performers will showcase a short 10 to 15-minute work in a cabaret-style evening at the East Sydney Community and Arts Centre (ESCAC), Darlinghurst.
The residency is a disability-led project with authentic storytelling, identity and community at its heart. Each of the five projects, whilst so diverse in artistic practice, are unified in their expression of protest and celebration. Each performance is a challenge to the status quo and a call for systemic social change. Each act is also an ownership of identity, an expression of crip joy, and a powerful insight into disability culture and community.
“Disability doesn’t make you exceptional, but questioning what you think you know about it does.” – Stella Young.
The Ground Zero performances take place Friday 16 and Saturday 17 May from 7pm to 9pm. The show will run for approximately 120 minutes with a short intermission.
We welcome all visitors to ESCAC and are committed to making it accessible and inclusive for everyone. The venue is wheelchair accessible, with accessible car spaces available out the front on Burton Street. We accept companion cards and welcome assistance animals. Accessibility for Ground Zero will include Audio Description, Auslan and a soft beginning and ending.
