DOGHOLE (NWF Reading)

30 September 2024 6:45PM Old Fitz, 129 Dowling St, NSW, Australia. A$0.00
“DOG will be the best Australian writer the world will ever see, and no ghosts, no pretty girls, no unbelieving mothers will get in the way of that. Right?”

Note: this a free staged reading presented as part of the Fitz’s inaugural New Works Festival.

Meet DOG or Camille Evans (don't call them that to their face, though.) They think all writers are bad, they think Tim Winton isn't that great of an author, and they think they have the next big hit under their fingers. It's called Doghole - and it's their ticket out of the middle-of-nowhere town they grew up in. But DOG knows it's a bit hard to write a book with no characters and no plot. DOG knows that normal writers don't get haunted by the ghosts of dead authors who insist they're doing this writing thing wrong. DOG knows that normal writers don't find the world of fiction and reality crossing over until they're not sure what's a line in a book or an event in real life. DOG knows this, they really do. But that's just another hurdle in their race to be the next big thing.
