The Loft, Theatre Republic, 6-8 Musk Avenue, Kelvin Grove Wednesday, September 11, 2019, 7:15 – 8:30pm Written and performed by Australia’s powerhouse spoken-word poet Omar Musa, this is riveting, politically-charged and deeply personal storytelling, inspired by the passing of Musa’s personal hero, Muhammad Ali. Musa dives into a furious torrent of poetry and rap, story and song, confronting suburban violence, lost love, his Malaysian heritage, and the dark realities of growing up as a brown-skinned Muslim boy in Queanbeyan. A live-wire, hypnotic and totally unmissable hour of theatre. Brisbane City Council is a proud founding partner of Brisbane Festival.
