Wednesday, September 11, 2019, 7:30 – 8:45pm From their warehouse party origins in Brisbane’s West End, all the way to slaying the glittering stages of London’s West End, the Briefs boys are back in town with a sci-fi spectacle of flirty, filthy fabulousness. Close Encounters features Briefs’ heart-stopping blend of cabaret burlesque, comic caper, dazzling drag, and jaw-dropping circus. Expect interstellar aerial feats and warp-speed strippers from outer space as they push the boundaries of artistry, masculinity and decency. This glory of intergalactic glamour is the third instalment from Briefs, and lands at Brisbane Festival having well and truly glitter-bombed the globe. Prepare yourselves for a close encounter with the Briefs boys. Brisbane City Council is a proud founding partner of Brisbane Festival.
