AUSFORM MICRO-FEST 2015 - a 4 day burst of progressive performance. A vibrant palette of progressive thinkers, alter-egos, secret videos and glitter beards. A detox from the mundane. Make yourself up and join us, for a change.

Tonight! Somewhere in a great European megacity, somewhere on the cusp of a new era, a middle-aged architect hosts the last ever episode of life-as-we-know-it. And let's face it: when it comes down to it, it’s just portland cement, water, aggregate, air and the proletariat VS The Man. 

A satirical drag eulogy for a world past its use-by-date. 

Hosted by washed up default man/proto-god figure Archibald Tactful, and accompanied by anti-virtuoso drag king punk house band The Great White Males - Béton Brute is a gratuitously sleazy and joyfully noisy critique of alpha-masculinity and the built environment.

Rachael Clerke is a young woman artist based in Bristol who likes dressing up as wealthy older men. Her last show How to achieve redemption as a Scot through the medium of Braveheart featured Alex Salmond, Mel Gibson and Donald Trump and won the Ideastap Underbelly Award in 2014.
