Event Description

If you are sick of staring at your navel, or of watching your friends stare at their navels, or of hearing about how your flatmate's navel hooked up with their friend's navel, rest assured we understand your sickness, and have concocted a navel gazing antidote otherwise known as an evening of STORIES FROM SOMEWHERE ELSE.

Featuring a story from inside the internet, a story from Iraq, a story from the Creator of the Universe, a story from outback NSW and more.

By: ABC journalist SARAH DINGLE, international globe-trotter MATT THOMPSON, Crack Theatre Festival director JANE GRIMLEY, goat aficionado ADAM NORRIS and the cuddly but searingly political PETER POLITES.

We're also calling all wildcards to bring ONE PAGE stories set somewhere else, about someone else, or written somewhere else, to read on the night, which will be held, not at our usual digs, but at that Kings Cross brand of somewhere else otherwise known as FBi Social.

Following the stories, we'll be hearing tunes from the Vasco Era, and then Tyson Koh will spin some tunes on the music playing device.

A mind-expanding evening to cure even the most stubborn of Narcissists.
