Circe's Carnival of Vice

Bloomsday in Melbourne presents
Circe's Carnival of Vice
Wednesday 11 June - Sunday 22 June 2025 @ fortyfivedownstairs
Do you dare join us to descend into James Joyce's fevered dreamscape?
When men fall under the spell of Circe what can they become?
Prepare yourself for a wild carnival ride of surreal hallucinations exploring the outer realms of gender identity and sexuality in Dublin 1904 - an over-the-top world of music laughter... and vice.
It's gritty moving uproarious and outrageous: you may never be the same!
Presented by Bloomsday in Melbourne this original production reimagines Joyce's 'Circe' episode as a surreal comic and subversive response to the sexologists of his day - those boldly redefining 'normal' sexuality.
Blending bawdy pantomime with biting critique this drama is a playful yet pointed exploration of enchantment desire power and gender.
