Ria Adele: Ria is a queer Tanzanian poet, performer and therapist, based on Wangal land. Ria's insightful and self-reflective verses beautifully explore themes of grief, mental illness, relationships, and healing, accompanied by captivating instrumental tracks. Ria believes strongly in the power of performance in all its forms for protest, storytelling, healing and connection.

 
Jordana Wegman: Jordana is a comedian and improviser also based on Wangal land (the exact same as Ria, they share a wall). She regularly performs improv at Improv Theatre Sydney as part of their house team program, as well as in her indie teams Spill It (The Old Fitz), Group Chat (SXSW, Sydney Fringe), and Joint Custody (World Pride, Sydney Fringe).
