Yvette Walker, First Nations playwright, storyteller and Artistic Director & Co-CEO at Brown's Mart, steps into the role of Guest Curator with the series Playwrights & Provocateurs. Hosted at Brown's Mart, this event series celebrates stories that won't sit quietly. Festivalgoers can expect a panel of Indigenous women diving deep into the play Seven Deadly Gins, intimate sessions with luminaries like Jane Harrison and Raimondo Cortese, and a razor-sharp panel on censorship. Across every event, Walker champions honesty, wit, and a willingness to take risks: this lineup bites back.

29 May
This standout session will gather three First Nations artists: Jada Alberts (Black Light, winner of the Theatre Category at the 2025 NT Literary Awards), Yvette Walker (Seven Deadly Gins, runner-up of new Australian Play Award, Australian Theatre Festival in New York) and Ursula Yovich (Barbara and the Campdogs, 4 Helpmann Awards).
They sit in conversation to explore the electric energy that comes from telling their own stories. This will be an exclusive look at the creative process, the lived realities behind their works, and reflections on why laughter can be a kind of resistance.

Standing on Larrakia land as the Home of Territory Performing Arts, Brown’s Mart delivers a year-round arts program centred in collaboration, innovation and energy
In and beyond our multiple performance spaces we create and present contemporary performance works which engage with many communities and artforms.
We champion new work and new voices from the Northern Territory through residencies, creative developments and presentations, and have done since 1972. Just as this legacy continues, so does Brown’s Mart’s commitment to our artists, our audiences, and our community.
