Story Week 2023 (SW23) is a celebration of great writing powerfully performed. From Sydney Opera House to local community centres, SW23 presents twenty events, across seven days – showcasing close to 100 writers. SW23 brings together a vibrant mix of poets, storytellers, comedians, lyricists and idea-spreaders.
You will have the opportunity to experience creativity and ideas through performances, discussions, talks and liter-arty experiments. You, the audience, the community, are invited to tell your own stories to each-other.
The SW23 theme is Palimpsest: words erased but still visible beneath bold text. Language that will not die. Flowers sprout through concrete. Culture bursts through the colony. Voices shout behind policy.
