SWF2021 [Margins and Mayhem] - Presentation by Dr Noëlle Janaczewska
Noëlle Janaczewska is a playwright, poet, essayist and the author of The Book of Thistles (UWA Publishing)—part environmental history, part poetry, part unconventional memoir. She is the recipient of multiple awards, fellowships and residencies, including the 2020 NSW Premier’s Digital History Prize, a Queensland Premier’s Literary Award, the Griffin Award, ten AWGIE (Australian Writers’ Guild Industry Excellence) Awards and a Windham-Campbell Prize from Yale University for her body of work as a dramatist.
EXPERIENCE ST
Have you ever wondered what life in early Sydney was really like? Writer Noëlle Janaczewska visits Experiment Street in the harbour suburb of Pyrmont where she delves into the Sydney City Archives.
Albeit there numerous mentions of ‘Experience St’, Noëlle introduces you to seamstress Lizzie Absalom, a fictional resident of Experiment Street in the early 1900s, where she adds her colourful recollections to the ‘official’ records.
