Saturday 19th July, Jonathan Mustard & Alexi Edwards + open-mike! at The Moon, on Zoom

.
Perth Poetry Club has wonderful poets Jonathan Mustard & Alexi Edwards
this Saturday 19th July, 2pm-4pm, at The Moon Café, 323 William Street Northbridge and on ZOOM.

For the last 35 years, Jonathan Mustard has been one of Perth’s most innovative composers writing mixed media works for theatre, dance, concert and stage. A large part of his output over the last decade has been music for dance, most notably with renowned WA choreographer, Chrissie Parrott. Since the early 2000s, he has developed a practice in video and animation. Through his collaboration with Parrott, and more recently with photographer, Martine Perret, he has extended his work in this medium, providing virtual sets, lighting design elements and installations for performance and gallery environments in tandem with creating original music and sound designs.

Since 2017, Mustard has been a keen attendee and contributor to the Perth Poetry Club and has been feature poet on at least three occasions.

Presenting the artist formerly known as Lexie, Alexi Edwards.

Delivery Driver by night, Artist by day. Alexi is a wild insomniac who is originally from Perth, went to uni in Melbourne (Bachelor of Creative Arts in Writing and Theatre), assisted a PhD research project in the US Deep South, has taught English in-person in Germany and Spain as well as remotely to China, and finally somehow set-down roots in Brisbane.

With aspirations of one day representing Queensland in the Australian Poetry Slam; Alexi’s writing is a deep-dive into the complexities of mental health, deeply important political issues, the queer struggle, and whatever else comes to her wild insomniac brain.

She swears she’ll finish her zine eventually!

Ben is away but we have Lilith for sound (learning the ropes) and we hope to have fully functioning Zoom.

Please join us to celebrate poetry,

this Saturday, 19th July 2025, 2pm to 4pm WST (GMT+8hr) Perth Australia.
