Being Dead (Don Quixote)
by Kerith Manderson-Galvin
“A glorious mess with a serious purpose” DAILY REVIEW
“Deconstructivist, post-structuralist, feminist, transgressive... and fascinating.” PERTH ARTS LIVE
“Highly original” - THE AGE
A dangerous quest of literary theft, build-your-own identity and post-anarchy. Being Dead (Don Quixote) steals from Cervantes, Barbie™ and instant porn. Don Quixote is the idol you deserve.
Kerith Manderson-Galvin’s sensational and ever evolving signature work has alienated and captivated audiences and now debuts in Sydney at KXT. Infamous Queer Femme Kerith Manderson-Galvin (AKA Unofficial Kerith Fan Club) rips off the original rip-off artist Kathy Acker et al. in this ongoing project purposefully rewritten to Manderson-Galvin’s own shifting identity.
From the chaotic and critically acclaimed company that brought Sydney ‘Puntila/Matti’, ‘The Eternity of the World’, and ‘Unsex Me’ - MKA Theatre of New Writing.
“I still don’t have a clear idea of what my voice is.” Kathy Acker
“Thou hast seen nothing yet.” Cervantes
