the performance art group EXIT and co-founder of the anarchist punk band Crass,

Vaucher and Phil Russell and helped to instigate the free festival movement.
An ardent, articulate and still angry polemicist, his works include Reality
Asylum, Rocky Eyed and Oh America. Says Rimbaud of his own legacy: “our
response to things wasn’t a musician or a lyrical response, it was a political
response.”
Louise Elliott an Australian tenor saxophonist and has performed with a wealth of international musicians. Originally known for her appearances with cult rock outfits Laughing Clowns, The Saints, Ed Kuepper and Paul Kelly, Louise has a fiery commitment to inspiring and energetic live performance which has been referred to in the media as "her profoundly diverse smorgasbord of funk, blues and rock" and "an African inspired jazz explosion". She has played with Penny Rimbaud for 9 years.
Accompanied by haunting sax, Penny Rimbaud will read a selection of his work.
Join us for an unforgettable evening with a truly righteous, independent
spirit.
There'll be a Q & A after, followed by punk disco.
