Bringing the BAD to Bendigo! Join us at Bendigo Writers Festival 2023 for the first Australian Bad Diaries Salon since February 2020.

A fabulous lineup of writers — Reece Carter, Di Dempsey, Biffy James, Jasper Peach, with host (and Bad Diaries Salon creator) Jenny Ackland — will read from their unpublished diaries and notebooks, responding to this salon’s theme: DREAM.

Each Bad Diaries Salon is a unique combination of readers and theme, a performance that’s original and unscripted, candid and unedited, raw, possibly raucous, a little bit poignant, and more than likely very funny.

One show only, on Saturday 6 May, from 1.15—2.15pm, as part of Bendigo Writers Festival 2023.

Find all the details, and purchase your festival pass, at Bendigo Writers Festival.

Thanks to Bendigo Writers Festival for inviting Bad Diaries Salon to be part of the fabulous 2023 program.
