About

Raw. Divisive. Naive and neglected. Spend one final evening with architecture’s most misunderstood.

Born in the 50s, Brüt (the living and breathing embodiment of brutalism) had high hopes of becoming a beacon of public infrastructure and community care. However, an abrupt public crucifixion in the 70s saw him barely make it past his 25th birthday. His crime? Being ‘ugly’. Frankensteined into the 21st century, Brüt now faces a crumbling and tumbling identity crisis. All around the country, he sits disused, abused and ultimately confused! Taking his storey on tour, Brüt reconciles his presently floored existence.

Writer & Performer Lindsay McDonald. Co-writer Ang Collins. Director Zöe Hollyoak. Produced with Essential Workers.

Dates: 4 Sep, 7:00pm - 7:50pm & 5 Sep, 7:00pm - 7:50pm.

Location: East Sydney Community and Arts Centre (ESCAC). 34 Burton Street, Darlinghurst.

This production is part of The Flying Nun by Brand X, Season 10 'Supply & Demand'.
