“Smashing theatre and literature together“ is poet, producer and MC Freya Daly Sadgrove’s mantra for Show Ponies, the hit revue that sees Aotearoa poets perform their work like pop stars: outrageous costumes, bright lights, beats and, naturally, backup dancers.
Show Ponies returns to Verb Festival in Wellington for two shows following a tour to Brisbane, Dunedin and Featherston earlier this year.
As brave and confrontational about her own life in print and on stage as she is funny and clever, Sydney-based Daly Sadgrove has a Master of Arts from the International Institute of Modern Letters. Head Girl with Te Herenga Waka University Press in 2020 was her first book.
