SSWWIM (Sydney Spontaneous Splinter Spring WWIM)
October 15, 2025 @ 6:00 pm - 10:00 pm
$5 – $20
SWWIM featuring Ellen Kirkwood and Mary Rapp!!!
S for Sydney (where Ellen and Mary are based), S for spontaneous because we started planning this a few days ago, S for Splinter Orchestra which Ellen is a long-term member of and is a group that hugely inspires many improvisers in Boorloo, and S for spring for alliteration purposes even though it’s actually Kambarang right now x
Ellen and Mary are long-term collaborators and iconic improvisers in the national scene and will play a duo set, supported by a first-meeting play from Fynn Evans-Ocharen, Sage Pbbbt, Eva Tucker, and Saskia Willinge. We will then have an open jam/ play/ read through of one of Ellen’s scores, so bring a sound-making object (or be ready to use your voice) if you’d like to join in. Maybe we could … swim in some cool sounds together… just an idea.
Entry by donation suggested $20/10/5, no one turned away for lack of funds, and money will be split between the artists.
We will also have some WWIM merch for sale and our library up and running.
