“MERRIGONGX is a natural home for my work. After presenting my debut season of Party Girl in 2019, MERRIGONGX has generously supported the development of Dog People in both 2023 and 2024. Dog People is a work that speaks to Illawarra dog people. From Puckey’s Estate to Bellambi beach, to the streets of Balgownie and Mount Ousley, my family and I have walked our beloved dogs around the landscape of Wollongong for many years. Dog People is tied to the Illawarra, and Illawarra audiences will recognise themselves in the stories. It is an opportunity for me to reconnect with my childhood home and invite Illawarra people share in this journey.”
