Becoming (Again & Again): Songs, Stories & Wildness
Award-winning performer Amy Bodossian invites you to a healing, hilarious, heart-wrenching night of psychedelic pop art songs, spoken word & raw storytelling. Love, loss, ADHD, lost keys and more. “When Bodossian is in her element, the room goes quiet; she is the Queen.” – Theatre Matters
Acclaimed Melbourne/Naarm artist Bodossian will weave her original psychedelic pop art songs with folk, blues, funk influences together with candid anecdotes and revelations that turn the poison into medicine. Amy’s poignant, vulnerable and often profoundly funny performances have made her a beloved cabaret treasure among the Melbourne/Naarm scene. OCD, shut down men, ageing, nature and its capacity to heal – she delves into it all.
Amy has appeared on ABC’s Spicks and Specks and Please Like Me, performed at major festivals across Australia and headlined all of Melbourne’s top poetry events. She’s been nominated for a Green Room Award, won the Melbourne Spoken Word Convenor’s Choice Award, and received multiple arts grants for various works.
