Theatre Works, Melbourne, VIC, Australia
Negative Energy Inc.

Theatre Works and Ash Flanders present

Negative Energy Inc.

Aren’t you tired of being positive?

If you're not angry, you're not paying attention. Angry homosexualist Ash Flanders takes no prisoners in this petty, unwarranted attack on the modern world. Accompanied by pianist and actual 'talent' Dave Barclay, Ash will speak, sing and mince in a desperate attempt to prove life is an exhausting and thankless task. Think Jean-Paul Satre, with a 30-inch waist...and a Cher wig.

"Ash Flanders doesn't miss a beat" - The Herald Sun

"…if you love the likes of Taylor Mac and John Cameron Mitchell and iOTA, you'll love Ash Flanders. Don't regret missing a dose of this wonderful negativity." - Aussietheatre.com
