Hi
My name is Peter Fernon. I live in Trentham, Victoria,
Australia. On 21 June I will be performing my 75 minute version of the Epic of
Gilgamesh, a foundation myth of the Babylonian empire that centres on a love
story between two men, in Melbourne.
Peter
Fernon’s
masterful
retelling,
accompanied
by
musician
Charles
Affleck’s
moving
and
dramatic
soundscape,
traverses
the
sacred
and
the
profane
swinging
effortlessly
from
the
solemn
lament
to
the
bawdy
ditty.The Epic we are taken into the complex and contradictory depths of the human psyche, its endless desire, its glorious schemes and its consequent capacity for profound suffering. We are provoked to feel what it is to be alive.
