CLASS ACT

Led by Mish Grigor, this new work examines class and social mobility, scrutinising the performance of class; and how signifiers of wealth and poverty are complicated by lives lived online. Drawing on Grigor’s wry sense of humour and utilising short-form ‘acts’, Class Act proposes a new social structure in which the much-detested and occasionally adored figure of the bogan reigns supreme over us all.

With the support of Yarra City Council’s Art Grants, Class Act is in development in 2020 for presentation in 2021. The work was developed over two weeks in December in St. Marks Hall.
