Clare will talk about her current project: finding and compiling video excepts from The Sydney Front's production history. Along the way, Paul and Clare will reflect upon the nature and meanings of performance documentation, and upon the idea of a performance archive. Artists involved in The Front's productions, audiences who remember 'being there' and anyone else with an interest in Sydney's contemporary performance history and/or performance documentation are invited to come along and to share their stories and memories as part of the ongoing, living archive of The Sydney Front.

All welcome.
